The first game of the season. Cold as hell. So cold that Beerman had 2 inch icicles hanging from his beard by lunch time! That didn’t stop the men of the YD. With a six man squad and one in support, the boys used their on-field tactics combined effective radio use to help drive back the Germans in this great game of winter ball. Final Score Russians 217 / Germans 205.
“These guys just went out there and did their jobs.” said Jarrid “Stretch” Clifton, the YD’s XO. “Everyone including the newest guys, Chrono and Reverend, did phenomenal out there.”
Icicles of DOOM!
Speaking of “Phenomenal”…just how did the new Tippmann X7 Phenom perform out there in the cold? “Outstanding!” exlaimed Sgt. Steve “Beerman” Bachofner. “No problems with the paint, the cold, nothing. This gun cannot be stopped! That’s why we use em!” Yes, Beerman, yes it is!
Captain Malone from Team Extreme Measures (and the Germans this time around) had this to say: “YD, great job running missions. It was a Great game plan to keep us tied up all day while you guys ran the field. It worked.” Jim “SolidJimmy” Searle from the Connecticut Commandos followed with “Yankee Division, Stretch you and your boys earned your keep all day long from running missions to holding the line. You guys were a key part in our success. Congrats on our MVT.”
So all in all, a great day of paintball, some new faces on the field with the YD, and the MVT. What more can a First Sergeant ask for?
