Operations & Training Schedules

Weekly Operations Schedule

Our operations are scheduled on Sundays, starting at 16:00 UK/11:00 US Eastern. This is when the operation starts and the platoon moves out. To be fully kitted out and ready to go, we request all members to join at least 20 minutes early.

Monthly Orientation Schedule

Orientation training is scheduled on the last Saturday of each month, starting at 16:00 UK/11:00 US Eastern. As with our operations, this is when orientation starts. All recruits need to join at least 30 minutes early. This allows for time to resolve any potential issues with mod setup or joining the server. Join Teamspeak to get started on orientation day.

Speciality Training

We also provide occassional training sessions on Saturdays, starting at the same time as Orientation. Example training sessions include jump school or recon school. As with operations, you'll need to join at least 20 minutes early.

Sargent's Impatient Responses (FAQs)

I want to be a pilot, I fly all the time with my bros!

Hell no! What type of operation do you think we run here? You really thing we just let any G.I. Joe off the street take off in one of our birds? Do you really expect a private like you will be promoted to an officer just because you asked!? Get back in line private! You're a rifleman until you're trained up, and maybe we'll allow you the privilege of attending flight school!

What mods are you running? What do I need to setup?

That's good private, now you're asking the right questions! When you first jump into Discord, make sure you read all that's written down in #welcome-to-1st-platoon. In there, you'll learn all about this unit, and the mods and apps you'll need. Oh, make sure you read the rules. They're the first thing you see, but will be a one way ticket out if you break them.

What kit should I setup for operations? Can I be a sniper?

Hold up there private, do I need to take you back to question 1? For your operations loadout you'll need to make sure to check on the #weekly-loadout channel in Discord. It'll all be posted there. Since you're new, you'll also be setup with the loadout when you attend the orientation training. You did read that above, right? As a private, you'll start as a rifleman. You need training and build up trust with your Sargents before you're trusted with our speciality roles. Not to mention attending our operations every week for a specialized role.

Sarge, I just saw the enemy over the ridge, requesting permission to go after them!?

Denied private! We in 1st Platoon don't tolate that lone wolf soldier here. If you run off, not only are you going to be KIA, you're letting your squad down by being one less rifleman on the line. If you repeat that maneuver, you'll be kicked out of the unit with a dishonorable discharge.

I play ARMA with another group, can I still participate?

Yes you can. It doesn't matter to us who you play with on your liberty time. As long as you're kitted up and in-line for Sunday's op, you're good to go.
