The Mafia had a blast!!!! Thanks Pap for a great job leading us to a close victory. Germans better luck next time. I'd like to give a special shout out to Sargent Perry for running with us and pushing HotWheels up the night beach landing, you have made friends for life. Thanks to all the Bearclaw staff and reffs for another outstanding job, look forward to October!

Thanks to all my friends on the Bear Claw staff, great job and the reffing was top notch as usual... they even looked bored at times since everything was going so smooth....felt for you guys reffing on the beach...lots of paint flying everywhere...
It was great to finaly run with Nitro...first time in 4 years I have had the opportunity to be on their side...did some damage together all over the field. Thanks to all my German cohorts, we fell short but they had to work extra hard to get the victory...Hootie did an awesome job leading us...
As for you American scum....lol... It was a great battle and I am so tired today from all the long walks to the respawn area...I could only push so far and then you guys would shift and slam the door...and the tanks did an awesome job of keeping us down, I was tank shot over a dozen seperate occassions...that is alot...good job.
This was a super fun game...those who missed out, well...you just missed one of the best games ever at Bear Claw...and I hope with the successful night beach landing that we will get to do it again and again...it was the first time in a while that I got goosebumps when the horn blew....awesome visual effects and job of keeping us all safe while allowing the game to play out....you outdid yourselves and I do not know how that can be topped...except maybe by battles in the collisium....oh yea....the future looks very promising.

Milkshake you are one crazy dude. The way you charged the school house during the final battle, there was probably 40 people shooting at you. I had a great time and had the pleasure of playing with some of the best paintball players anywhere. Thanks to Ben and all the Bear Claw folks for a super fun game. I'm still really tired today but looking forward to the game in October.

Back from Bearclaw and once again, Ben & Scott (and all the rest of the Bearclaw Staff) have proved why this field and the MPP scenario events are the ones we will always make extra effort to attend! You guys do it right! That night beach landing was something to see and experience! The flares worked perfectly and with the smoke and backlighting, the visuals were amazing! I hope Stitched got some good footage of that!! The game design and missions were extremely fun and satisfying (although one of my guys had a little too much fun interrogating one of the dummys...)
This time my team had a better idea of how to work in a scenario environment - we've always been tournament or "big game" players and this is pretty new to us, but we learned a lot. This time we were much more involved in the mission objectives and it payed off both in terms of us having a total blast completing them and benefiting the total war effort.
Refs - you guys were great as well - always where you needed to be and doing what you needed to do. You run into a lot of places where the refs just sit back and do nothing, but not at Bearclaw!
Bayou Mafia, Crusaders, Trueballers and Bounty Hunters - great running with all of you and shooting lots of Germans together!
Pap - thanks to you for leading us to Victory over the Germans - you did a great job! It was a real pleasure to meet you and have you as our General - I appreciate all the missions you steered our way and the confidence you showed in our team all weekend! I hope you had a great time as General, because if you ever do it again at Bearclaw and we are there, we'll do our best to get on your team! (after all, us Kentucky boys need to stick together!)
Special shout out to the Allied XO Tinker - you need another escort across the field at night on an E&E/Intel mission - put call out to the 502nd and we'll get er done again!!
Germans - it was a hard victory and you guys were tough!
Hootie & Co - that shrimp was outstanding! I wish I could have eaten more and thanks for garlic tip - never occurred to me to try that...!
Now to take a nap!
--502nd S.O.G.

To the 502nd and all the other teams that were on the allied side: You guys were always willing to go wherever it was needed. It was great to work with you guys on the field. Guys would come in the base breathing hard and sweat rolling off them and wanting to know where they were needed. The whole weekend was just awesome. Hootie the shrimp was great, my grandson Tyler loved it. Loved both beach landings, the night one was exceptional. Special shout out to Sgt. Kevin Parry for all he did. Not only was he great with a satchel charge but he went above and beyond when he ran Hot Wheels up the beach during the night landing. As long as we have guys like him in the military, I think we can feel safe.

502, you guys were awesome. We had a couple of opportunities to run missions with you all and I knew when we got with your squad work was going to get done. I was good to see all of you again. I am hoping to get some of our guys together to play out your way soon.
-I'll agree with everyone else the shrimp was incedible..-

It was a great game for me even though I reffed it. As Scott said, you truely get to appreciate the refs and what all goes on "behind the scenes" when you walk in their shoes. Big tip of the hat to both generals for a great game for all players. To all my friends (old, new, and unmet), great to see you guys again. Ben, Bonnie, Scott, Chris, Layla, Peanut, Gary, et al - another perfect game. Can't wait to for the October game when I can be a better target for everyone by slinging some paint. I can't wait to shoot me some Biscuitz ;D

This is just a little shout-out to the teams that played for the Allies this past weekend at Bear Claw. There were so many guys that played hard to bring home the win and I just want to thank you for a hard fought game. It was a difficult thing to decide in a short time after the game who to give awards to. All of you deserve an award. So this is to recognize some of them that did not get mentioned. All of you are great guys in my book and I’d be honored to run with you anytime.
• 502nd SOG – You guys were great running missions and were probably the last team off the field during the night game. • Hooligans – Another great bunch of guys that played hard all weekend. • Sigma Six – You guys ran hard all weekend too. Did a great job. • Injustice League – You were few in number but always willing to help where needed. • Ghost Squad – Did great running and supporting missions. • Havoc – Neighbors at camp and great players.
There were also individual players that worked hard and helped us to win, thanks to each of you. I hope I didn’t miss anyone.
Hootie and the Germans put up a great fight and the win did not come easy.
One more thing, thanks to the guys with 5X5 that did not shoot me when I walked up to you during the night game. I couldn’t see anything and it was a great show of sportsmanship on your part.
This was one of the best and thanks to Ben and all the Bear Claw staff for putting it on. Looking forward to the next one.
Thanks - Pap
