SECTION 02 - ABOUT

Who we are.
And how we fight.

PREAMBLE - AUTH: HQ

A Squadron is a community before it's a unit. Everything below , the structure, the standards, the doctrine , exists to make the time we spend together in-game the best hour of our week.

01
Professionalism

Radio hygiene. Muster discipline. Brief-back. We play the game the way it was meant to be played.

02
Teamfirst

No solo heroes. The team moves, the team wins. Rank is earned by taking care of the people to your left and right.

03
Realism

Doctrine-informed TTPs. Real command structure. Gear and loadouts reflect the role, not the player.

04
Fun

It's still a game. If you're not looking forward to Saturday night, we've failed. Keep it heavy, keep it human.
