We've got a new name!

I guess the name "504th" was becoming overused in the world of Call of Duty, so now we have been forced to change our clan's name for many reasons. One of them is that we need to be apart from other clans. From now on, we are the 50th. And, I'm officially a Private. So, instead of 504th Rct.Johnson, I'm now 50thAPTC.Johnson. Yep, I've been promoted.

Its good to play together...

The other day I was just playing Call of Duty Online when owning n00bs who couldn't shoot a rifle straight, just didn't seem as fun. I just thought, "Wouldn't it be cool if I actually had a real purpose for my sniping. Not just randomly killing enemies, but actually helping a teammates accomplish something." So, I wrapped up the round and looked into the clan recruiting section of the FileFront forums, and found the 504th Parachute Infantry Regiment. I applied, and they accepted me as a new recruit. Sometime in the near future, I will be promoted to the position of Private, but first, I must finish training. So, for now, I go by two names: 5c0rch, and {504th}Rct.Johnson.

Its Independence Day....

Happy 4th of July!!!!

Its the one day out of the year when all of us in the U.S.A. Think of what makes us truly free. Those brave soldiers in the late 1700s, or maybe the guys in the Mid-1940s running up those beaches with a lot to lose, but much more to gain. Quite simply, Its all of them. Whether you charged into Bunker Hill, the hedgerows of France, the deepest regions of Vietnam, or even Baghdad with the thought of America's safety in mind, you are deserving of recognition. Even if it is on a day tainted with biased politics and department store clearance sales.

In the words of this blogger, just settle down with your family or friends and watch the fireworks on this Fourth of July and be thankful that you can celebrate being free.
