22nd Expeditionary Task Force Now Recruiting!

Recommended Posts

INTRODUCTION

 

What is the 22ETF?

The 22ETF is a semi-realism unit that excels in the aspect of tactical experience but with none of headaches with other units.
The unit was founded many months ago by veterans from some of the biggest units in ArmA II community.
We are made up of players from different countries and of different ages that all come together for the the love of the game.
We play as a wide range of units in a wide range of different roles.
 

What are things the 22ETF does?

We hold several operations each week with each operation pertaining to different things.
We have our main operations which are mostly large missions with several objectives for us to complete. Sometimes adding in side objectives and other surprises.
We then have Zeus Operations designed for smaller scale operations, that are usually held during the week.
We always have a wildcard event that includes various different things. It could be a spec ops mission, or a defensive mission.
We always have various training sessions throughout the week to make sure we don't lose any of our skills or to learn new things.
 

What does your missions consist of?

Our missions are what we pride ourselves in here in the 22ETF. All of our missions are made by players in the unit.
We put of a lot of trust that these missions will challenge us but still be fun. These missions include everything from Infiltration, Invasions, and Search and destroy missions.
Being mainly a COOP unit we pride ourselves on the quality of the missions but also the story telling them behind them.
We like to create a very deep background to each of our missions. Something that creates immersion and reality.
 

How do I know if I am right?

Well for starters. We have a mix of European and US players. Our unit time is GMT so for europeans the event times are around 19:00 PM, US people are around 14:00 
You must be mature and respectful. We really like players who perform well and are regular but what is more important in people to be mature
If you like playing in a semi-laid back unit then you are right. We expect you to pay attention and follow orders but we don't go full Mil-Sim and don't require you to call people by their ranks.
Be regular. Be active. Talk to people. We have our own TS server and our own Dedicated server. We like people to come hang out and have a good time.
 

What is in store for the future of the 22ETF?
We have been an ArmA 2 unit for almost 2 years, and have been in ArmA 3 for about a year now. We're hoping to continue expanding in size and continue working on the experience we provide.

 

Thinking about it?

We have completely re-worked our training office and our training system to suit the unit better, currently our training staff provides -

Recruit Training: Entry level training, to help new players familiarize themselves with ArmA 3, mods like TFAR, AGM, and unit policies.

Basic Combat Training: A 3 day program to teach new and veteran players the tactics and procedures that can be found in our unit.

Advanced Individual Training: AIT is a training session which familiarizes our members with special weaponry and equipment. At the end the trainees become qualifed in a specific role (e.g. Medical Training, Armour Course, Flight School etc.).

New optional trainings are being worked on, for members who want to improve their skills in certain areas.

 

Operations group

 

Operations and training's are the main events that we host within the 22ETF, to improve our events we are opening an operations staff group. Their job is to help plan out the unit's operations, training's, deployments, backstories to missions, and overall to help prepare events, all members are welcome to apply and lend a helping hand.

 

Leadership

 

Besides regular soldiers, team leaders and squad leaders are the back bone of our unit, we rely on them to help manage the unit, as well as lead teams in operations. We will be opening up an NCO school for members who want to become team leaders, improve their leadership skills, or just to get some extra knowledge.

NCO Course

 

Two classes from the NCO Course have recently graduated, the new team leaders are being assigned to leadership positions, any candidates that wish to become team leaders, squad leaders, or just want to learn something new, are free to apply for the NCO Course

 

Mechanized Infantry

 

We are still looking for extra crewmen to man our Bradley IFV's, if you like driving, fighting, and or commanding inside an armored vehicle, you might want to give our Badger section a try

 

Aviation

 

There is one more opening for the aviation sector before we temporarily close it for recruitment.

 

Further plans

 

The month of October will be used to try and improve our unit through extra training sessions, and some re-structuring, however main operations will be held as usual on saturdays and sundays, somewhere around November we will start getting ready for yet another deployment.

Some changes has been made within the unit, and more to come.

 

To start of, we will soon come out with a new set of mods! Hopefully this will help us bring down the size of our modpack, as well as improve our experience!

 

The Mechacnised Section is open for recruitment, so if you are looking to be manning a bradly or a tank, apply today!

 

Aviation have two open spots, so interested in flying? - Apply before anyone else does.

 

 

This month we will focus on bringing the unit closer each other, become a better team and fight better together over all!

 

We hope we see you soon!

Modlist Update + NCO course!

 

As we progress through october we have had some changes. The major change is our modlist, which is now smaller in file size and have less mods.

We removed 7 mods, and added one.

 

Removed: 

@ASDG_JR

@fsf_al_rayak
@FSF_SacVentral
@helvantis
@mbg_killhouses_a3
@mightygau
@st_map_autobrightness

Added:

@mcc_sandbox_a3

 

We have also gone through with our first part of the NCO course. This time we focused on the leadership itself. How am I a good leader? And how do i get people to follow me?

It was a huge success and everyone did very well.
