Then I fully expect you to be surprised.
I'm surprisingly expectant that you'll be full.

If some of you got more examples about which army colleges, think-tanks use TOAW for educational purpose etc. and who would like to train their 'Flak-Truppen' or AAA troops, I am sure they'd like an update, too.

Some time ago I stumbled across a thesis-like piece from a Major Willmuth.

Ah, a serviceman. Good for you. I spent two years in Berlin ... when it had a little wall around it. The Army was kind enough to pay for my ticket.

I worked at the famous/infamous Teufelsberg.

Even with drop-tanks I couldn't fly from Cyprus to Scotland with a Bf-110C

I need a change of scenery; before my flight to the US I'll be in London for a few
days and hope I can manage to meet the 'Surrey' lads, incl. Ben Turner. Me and sPzAbt653
will organize a meeting of the east coast lads who dwell in the region of MD/WV/PA/DC/VA.
Tally-ho!

A Bf-110 might come in handy policing this thread too. With that in mind, it might seem we need new mods for the TOAW area, given absence of existing ones- RT and JAMiAM.
Herr Oberst- you might do well to consider using a LW Blohm & Voss Bv 138 given current weather conditions

So, once I booked my flight etc. and informed sPzAbt653, you're going to make it this time. You failoed to show up in 2011

I suppose you've seen Aberdeen enough as you are 10 minutes from there. Where are these 'new' places located ??

Until TOAW is fixed ... (in reply to Sekadegas, post below : by "fix" I mean the need of next patch, TOAW isn't of course broken)
what do you think of Decisive Action or Point of Attack 2 ? could it replace TOAW ?

TOAW isn't broken. It can be and should be upgraded but it can be played taking a lot of pleasure from it.
I do. Everyday.
