Order of the Day: June 6, 1944
Soldiers, Sailors and Airmen of the Allied Expeditionary Force!
You are about to embark upon a great crusade, toward which we have striven these many months. The eyes of the world are upon you. The hopes and prayers of liberty loving people everywhere march with you. In company with our brave Allies and brothers in arms on other fronts, you will bring about the destruction of the German war machine, the elimination of Nazi tyranny over the oppressed peoples of Europe, and security for ourselves in a free world.
Your task will not be an easy one. Your enemy is well trained, well equipped and battle hardened, he will fight savagely.
But this is the year 1944! Much has happened since the Nazi triumphs of 1940-41. The United Nations have inflicted upon the Germans great defeats, in open battle, man to man. Our air offensive has seriously reduced their strength in the air and their capacity to wage war on the ground. Our home fronts have given us an overwhelming superiority in weapons and munitions of war, and placed at our disposal great reserves of trained fighting men. The tide has turned! The free men of the world are marching together to victory!
I have full confidence in your courage, devotion to duty and skill in battle. We will accept nothing less than full victory!
Good Luck! And let us all beseech the blessings of Almighty God upon this great and noble undertaking.
The Year is 1944.
It's been 5 years since the war, which would soon be known as the deadliest war in the history of mankind, began.
It all began when Hitler, dictator of Germany invaded Austria, and Czechoslovakia. Italy and the Soviet Union formed an alliance with Germany as well, this was the origin of what was to be known as the Axis.
The world grew concerned and asked Hitler to stop invasions. He refused and invaded Poland. Almost immediatly, Great Britian, France, Canada, Austrailia, and New Zealand declared war on Germany. WWII had begun.
America at first was nuetral, butsent supplies to it's allies battling the Axis, and built it's army.
Within a year, France fell to Germany, Germany broke the peace pact between them and the Soviet Union, and placed an alliance with the now growing Empire of Japan. Great Britian was held at bay with constant night bombings over London. Almost all of Europe, Asia, and Northern Africa were in the Axis control.
In 1941, Japan launched a surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, an American naval base. America and Britian declared war on Japan, in turn, Germany declared war on America.
Now it's 1944, and the time for Europe's independence has come!
Right now we are launching the largest full-scale invasion since Kublai Kahn's invasion of Japan in 1281.
You are an infantry unit, about to take part in this invasion. You are about to land on Omaha Beach in Normandy. Each of you have your own strengths and weaknesses, your beliefs and morals, your skills, and emotions. You all are unique in every way. You are all required in this unit to help achieve a victory in Normandy, free France, and eventually see an end to the Nazi rule in Europe itself. Go out there, and give them hell trooper!
Rules:
1. There will be a large amount of alcohol, smoking, violence, blood and gore, profanity, and peril in this RP.
2. Godmoding may happen on VERY RARE occasion. It must be approved by the GM (me) and will 95% of the time be denied. It's probably best not to use it at all.
3. Late commers wishing to join this RP must post their character in the OOC Thread and have it approved by the GM before any posting what-so-ever!
4. Gender of your character will be enforced as a male, not because I'm sexist, but because no women served in the armed forces during 1944. Sorry.
5. Have fun in this RP, it's very broad and can be experimented with in some very good ways!

Intro Post:
James felt sick. The boat ride to Omaha Beach was somethin ghe could live without. The boat was no larger than a tug boat, was rough against every wave that hit it, and was packed with soldiers (50-80 each).
If that wasn't enough...the weather was just perfect. It was no warmer than 50 degrees, foggy, and the ocean spray made you wet and colder.
James felt the sick feeling return to him, and with little warning, out came his breakfest, out of his mouth and onto the boots of another soldier standing next to him.
"Hey, you little ****! Drop that **** somewhere else!" he yelled.
James was about to apologize, but the captain was now bellowing orders to them. Everyone gave the captain their attention.
"Okay ladies, listen up! We are just about to land in the target area! Once we land, get your ass covered. This is no walk in the park! The beach is open, and there are not many obstacles to cover behind. Take advantage of whatever cover you have! Once on the shore, go to your assigned position on the beach, keep the sand out of your weapons!"
"SIR YES SIR!" The soldiers cried as one.
"Also note: not all of you will make it out of this battle alive. This is one battle that will easily lead your to your death bed, but if you even think about runnin gout on me, I swear to God I'll put a ****ing bullet in your head. No one deserts! Do I make myself clear?"
"SIR YES SIR!"
"Clear the ramp in 60 seconds!" The boatsman cried over the motor of the boat.
James was starting to hear artillery fire. Explosions were sounding every second now. Shells began impacting the water around them, startling him and many other troopers. One shell hissed over them, and impacted with another boat off to their right, sending both metal debris, and human debris into the air and down into the cold water below.
The boat motor died down and the ramp opened, revealing Omaha Beach, strewn with barbed wire, and dotted with black craters, and guntowers, which were already erupting in a frenzy of bullets.
"CLEAR THE RAMP! CLEAR THE RA-" The Boatsman never finished his sentence. A bullet ripped through his face, sending him into the shallow water below. The towers fired more into the boat, killing soldiers standing there, James was right in that line of fire!
"GO GO GO!!!!!" was the last thing James heard before jumpin over the side of the boat, into the cold shallow water beneath him. He had narrowly escaped death, as the bullets continued ripping into the boat, killing any soldier, that was not fast enough to jump over the boat in time...
