DO YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES?

We've heard this phrase quite a bit after the United States Marine Corps coined it for their recruitment campain, for television press and radio. We've seen it used in recruitment for various military VOA's on the internet. I'm even guilty of using in the text introduction for a video I produced posted at YouTube entitled "Operation Cope Tiger" But I think there is something missing in this phrase if someone wants to ask  people if they want to become a Virtual Military Aviator.

My name is Maj. General Al "Doc" Weber, Deputy Commandant-Logistics of the Virtual United States Marine Corps. and I am here to present a challenge to people who have the desire to become true Vitual Military Aviators. ARE YOU READY to have what it takes to be a vUSN/vUSMC aviator, I feel is the right question to ask.

The vUSMC has recently merged with the Virtual United States Navy, {vUSN} and both organizations are currently working to put into place a virutal counterpart of the real world USN and USMC command structure, along with thier real world operational relationship. What both organizations want and need, are dedicated Rotory Wing pilots who are READY TO HAVE WHAT IT TAKES !! If this peaks you interest, please read on.

What we do at the vUSN/vUSMC is simulate real world operations based on real world training. As a fellow virtual helo pilot, I know first hand about the dedication it takes to master "The Beast". Not easy, but very rewarding!! "Helo jocks" are a breed apart, and truly do live "by the seat of thier pants"! To fly an otherwise aerodynamicly unstable aircraft  50ft. above the deck at a 100knts, and full of Marines that are trusting you to get them to thier objective in one piece, and ready to fight, is not something everyone can do.

If you ever had the dream or desire to be a part of an organization of Virtual Naval/Marine Corps Aviators dedicated to simulating real world  Naval/Marine Corps operations,  based on real world training, then I would say that, YOU ARE  READY!
