Well, you might have seen this...
----------------------------------------------
Special Forces...

http://www.thegenomecollective.com/insignia/specialforces.gif http://www.thegenomecollective.com/insignia/specialforces_small.gif

The TGC Special Forces, are the commandos, the seals of TGC. Similar to Storm Trooper, but the insignia of those who regularly go on away missions and have faced terrible adversity. This award also carries responsibility, as special forces personel will be called upon for "boarding parties" and away missions as and when the need arises. Again, a discretionary award, you can nominate someone else, but not yourself.
----------------------------------------------

I started to compile a list of names, people who have always placed themselves in the line of fire, in order to defend the honour of this team. I cruised the "competitors" BB's for names of our members, people who should be in the TGC "Special Forces", covert operatives, fighters and well, the list is too long...

I got about as far as this....

dnar
phil
virus
dustin
chas
tril0Byte
nofinger
wylie
pelligrini
X-Calibur

and it became apparent that the task was just too big. Too many people have played a role, and choosing seemed impossible.

So, as this TGC regiment is brand new, I thought some relaxation was appropriate in the first instance. This is the one and only opportunity you will get to volunteer for Special Forces duty. Hereafter, it will be on merit - how active someone is in defence of the team, how quick they are to meet and fend off boarding parties etc. You could be called upon at any moment, to aid your batallion in defence of TGC - so think carefully before you say "me". You will also be expected to display your badge with pride, let the world know you are there to kick ass at a moments notice, ...and all that stuff :D

Anyway, if ya wanna be in the Special Forces, sign up below, alternatively, if your name is above and you want out, also state below.

Cheers....

OUTSTANDING - corporal Chas,

Now get that insignia sewn onto your camo fatigues and report to the counter terrorist training facility, for some practice with your Ingram M10.

He was quoting a movie brother:

http://www.insectdissection.com/badges/fullbadges.wav


The Treasure of the Sierra Madre (1948)/Film w/ Humphrey Bogart

That's the earliest quote , but it was used on several occasions....

Ahhhh, my apologies will, I'm obviously not as cultured as I could be. My dad says those old Bogart films were excellent - did it have sound or words on the screen? :D :D :D

Siggy, were you part of the boarding party that sacked the wanna-be borg ship in Italy?

Did you bring any loot back with you? My cow needs something to assimilate.

I hope it’s better than the stuff we got off the SS hiccup spew chunks pirate ship.

I think my cow could assimilate a nice Fedora hat. :cool:

Phil, are you hearing me.
