Wardog Squadron



A Squadron composed primarily of trainees, led by Capt. Jack Bartlett "Heartbreak One", and two other veteran combat pilots. They were engaged off the coast of Sand Island and all of the trainees except those on the ground and "Wardog 7" 2nd Lt. Kei "Edge" Nagase. After this incident, she was moved up to the # 2 position because of her wild flying style. Two other pilots were added for their next flight, Lt. Alvin "Chopper" Davenport and Lt. "Blaze".

After their Flight Leader, Captain Jack "Heartbreak One" Bartlett was shot down, Wardog Four, known as Blaze, had became the flight leader due to the fact that Lt. Nagase, though senior to both he and Davenport, declined command and chose to stay at #2. When "Wardog Leader" Lt. Col. Ford was shot down over Sand Island during an air battle, Blaze found himself the sole leader of the squadron, which now included new member Airman Second Class Hans "Archer" Grimm. Being stationed on Sand Island Air Base, they were constantly on the frontline of the war and had seen battle in battlefields in Yuktobania and Osea, in every climate imaginable; on Yuktobanian soil in landing operations, and by striking vital targets deep within Yuktobanian Air Space. One of these missions including guiding a damaged C-5 carrying President Vincent Harling on an emergency landing as he traveled to secret peace negotiations in North Point.

During the middle of the war, they were court martialed for attacking Civilian Facilities in a Yuktobanian city and were forced to return to Oured for trialing. Thanks to a sudden sneak attack by Yuktobanian Forces, they were sent up to prove their loyalty to Osea and destroyed the enemy forces.

Afterwards, they returned to the frontlines in Yuktobania. During POW rescue operation "Ice Cage" in Glubina, Kei "Edge" Nagase, Wardog Two, is shot down, but recovered the next day after surviving and evading forces in harsh Arctic Conditions.

A week later, after her recovery, they supported the large ground operation by the Osean Army, which crushed the Yuktobanian Main Force in the Jilachi Desert.

Thanks to the success of that operation, they were called back to Osea for a ceremony by the Osean Vice-President at November City. However, after their fly-over and during the ceremony Yuktobanian Forces suddenly appeared and attempted to attack the city. During the immense dogfight, Wardog Three, Captain Alvin H. Davenport, is shot down and killed in action.

Days later, the Wardog Squadron returned to the frontlines of Yuktobania and supported the attack on Cruik Fortress, Yuktobania's largest and last defensive stronghold before reaching the Capital city. With the 108th's support, the fortress fell in half a day. However, when Wardog returned to base their CO, Col. Perault, had received information which indicated them to be spies.

During their arrest, they had escaped Osean Military Police and escaped Sand Island Air Base, in multiple T-45 Goshawk trainers. Captain Hamilton, from the Osean Military Command HQ, gave a general order to shoot down the Wardogs on sight and dispatched every fighter squadron in the area.

Wardog was sighted over an Osean Aircraft "Grave Yard", by the 8492nd Tactical Fighter Squadron and were pursued. However, the 8492nd lost sight of them and returned to base. Later they reappeared on radar. AWACS Thunder Head, now working against them on orders from Command HQ, vectored Captain Marcus "Swordsman" Snow from the Naval Air Force onto them. They were shot down. A Search team was sent to check for survivors, but did not find anything. They were officially listed KIA on December 7th, 2010.

However, it is said that the pilots had escaped and operated under a new name. No details were released until a Press Conference, well after the war's end. Wardog and Razgriz flew about 150 missions involving combat during the Circum-Pacific War.
