With great trepidation the 4 MOH aircraft sped single file down the runway and gently lifted into the air. A great battle lay ahead and all knew that more than one pilot might fall to the enemies guns. Reflections of happy times with loved ones pervaded the thoughts of those gallant gentleman as they flew into the morning sun and towards an uncertain destiny.
On this day however, there was one comfort akin to these MOH pilots. It was knowing that MOH_WARD was within the schwarm. This Valiant fighter was flying rotte with MOH_Madman, one of the squads most ruthless and deadly combat pilots. WARD was legendary in MOH. He had earned a reputation for being a ferocious fighter, undeterred by danger and hardened in the forges of battle. WARD had no equal in spirit and determination would do what he could to assist his wingman this day, whatever the cost to himself might be. He knew that MOH_Madman counted upon him to watch his six.
Over the RW crackled the voice of the great ACE and flight leader MOH_EMB110. "4 enemy aircraft approaching low from the west, keep tight to your wing and engage at will". Engines screamed as aircraft peeled off one by one and dived into the attack. Machine guns rattled, cannons roared, and enemy aircraft fell from the sky. Embroiled in a furball, desperate pilots maneuvered for advantage.
Over the RW came calls for help often drowned out by shouts of the victorious. MOH_WARD as always was responsive to the perils of his wingman and repeatedly cleared the MOH six. As was typical of this bold pilot on this day, he achieved many great kills while saving a comrades life.
As the sound of battle became a memory, the vanquished littered the Soviet steppes. The MOH schwarm turned for home under the ever watchful eye of MOH_WARD.
