I feel I should tell you that the vast majority my military knowledge comes from movies and video games, and the story we'll be telling will trend towards that rather than realism. Grounded in realism, yes, but at times, blown into full-on action movie proportions.[/quote]
Thank you for your candor, but this is not my first Military RP on this site or any of several other sites. Years ago, I used to criticize other's posts, but stopped doing that a long time ago. I found that it only served to chase people away from the RP. Then I became frustrated because no one would RP in this genre with me. I will not criticize what anyone writes, nor will I tell someone what to do. 

If someone has a legitimate question, please send it to me in a PM, I will respond to it there. I find a forum like this is too public and only serves the negativity rather than providing any productive resolution to a conflict.

I also am a gamer. I played Battlefield 2 when it came out ~10 years ago. I played PlanetSide many years ago. I have played many of the Call of Duty and HALO series of games on Xbox. In fact, I started a Military RP, similar in theme to what you are engaging here, but set a few decades in the future. My [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/posts/3705153]Alamo Scouts, Inc.[/url] RP, was based loosely on CAll of Duty; Advanced Warfare. I didn't get enough of a response to run it, so it died. I would love to do it some day. I see [@ONL] creating a Diver-type character. The first mission I was going to send a unit on would involve swimming to shore from a submerged submarine off the shore of the target city. 

With that said, I would be remiss if I didn't allow my character to criticize the chain of command in character. But it might be only in thoughts rather than verbally. This is pure fiction. I get that. I am not attempting to outtype anyone and am fully prepared to kill my character if needed.

I do expect others and possibly myself to allow everyone else in the RP to perform simple actions like walking and shooting or taking cover as if the group were working as a team. Everyone in this RP has my permission to do this for my character. It only makes sense if we are attempting to replicate a teamwork environment.
