How about a reintroduction.

Post by Sarge 1/68th Armor »

I've been around since 2010 battling it out with the old timers. I scrolled through the members list and smiled at all the names I've forgotten about, admins that retired and that one Air Force homo. Lol.

I don't know how long I'll be on here but I thought it was time to give it some hands on instead of chiming in here and there.

Some of you know why I left. I'll be brutally honest and quick. My 16 year old son died. Could have been accidental or took his own life because of what happens to most teenagers in school. Bullying. He was tough but he talked others out of their desperation. I think this really affected him. Anyway a 7mm mag rifle didn't leave much of his head. A neck pumping out blood. I was there seconds after it happened. Yes I'm tearing up now. So I pretty much stopped doing anything.
Tankers just incinerate. There's nothing left.

Jason actually played on EA 117 under a name I never knew. He laughed about it, it was only a few times but he really want to battle with us old timers. This is why I stayed away. So now I'll test the waters.
Here's what keeps me going now a days, my granddaughter. She's a tomboy to the max.

See everyone later.
Sarge out.

Welcome back Sarge.
I always wondered why you popped in here and there but weren't playing.
Look at your faces in that photo, you're doing well bud.
Hope DC provides more time for you to unwind as well.

Thanks guys. Now I'm just practicing and key bindings. I'll be bad as ever when I log in. Ready for tK's. Spray and pray.

Been playing since 2010? Noob! Month of the actual release of BF42 here. Rally Monkey, and yes I do throw poo. ;-)

So sorry to hear about your son Sarge, I didn't read that far into your post. There are no words.
