[Ribs]

Mine was coined by a friend and then validated by more friends. I had a cookout and invited alot folks. My specialty when I Barbeque is pork spare ribs. So at this cookout , along with the perfunctory hamburgers , hot dogs , brats etc , I grilled ribs. The ribs were such a great hit , my new "name" became Ribs. And 27 years later , it still is.

[Plowshare]

Hi all:

I got mine through the inspiration of irony in an old line I remembered from my youth: "They will beat their swords into plowshares."

I've since found the rest of this quotation: "They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore." This makes the irony even funnier in that we regularly do the opposite of the second sentence; in this game we beat our plowshares into swords...

[BravoFxTrt]

From the NATO phonetic alphabet often used in military slang, meaning "Bigfoot", my knick. Got that handle working on F-15's 30 some odd years ago.

[Knochenlutscher]

14, a wonderfull Age, breaking young girls hearts, or the opposite: getting slapped full 3l czech Coke bottles in the eggs by dissapointed fat girls in a youth camp in Rokycany or dying on your first cigarrette, "c'mon to the lungs". That 2nd incident was painfull, breath-taking full of shiny stars, a driving moment for me to watch more carefully after the other species.

The meaning of my Nick:
The inventor of this word was a dear friend of mine, the father of my goddaughter.
Knochenlutscher in german means literally bonesucker, Here my friend used to express his thoughts upon hardcore Gothics.
Once a year our local area in Eastern-Germany gets invaded by them, on their International known Festival.
This word remembers me when we used to hang up together and had some good time.

My Skinning related alter ego Segfej comes from a very rude word in hungarian "seggfej", out of aesthetical reasons I deleted one g. I would get banned for translating this, you must use this link to get a clue what it means, I don't wanna have trouble.

The reason why I chose this as my Nick for Skinning related issues, it was the very first word I got thaught in hungarian.
A high educated Veterinary befriended to my hungarian Familly always wanted me to speak fine hungarian and never learn these rude words, he himself spoke multiple languages and never met such rudeness or how he called it primitiveness.
When I met him I took up the noblest Hungarian, but in school you needed to build up some support or I would not stay here today.

[Wildchild]

I'm the first Kid in my family so my original name On Burnout Paradise was childno1, and after my dads friend called me wild I changed my name fro childno1 to Wildchild.

[Spinnetti]

How about my name? Well, almost.. I think the Italian original is spelled this way. Only people with my name in all of the USA are my direct family.... dying line I guess...

[JG54Spookie]

I needed a new username because my old one was really, really dumb. 
Some members at the Ubi forum didn't understand what it actually said, and called me spookie. So, I took that and combined it with JG54 to get my new name. I chose JG54 because II./JG54 has always been my favorite unit and because one of it's pilots (Horst Hannig, 98 kills) was possibly related to me. So, the unit does not come from an online squad (I've been asked before).

There is a JG54 online though...

Thanks everyone for replying. Sorry about the age thing. I must have looked over it on the agreement page

[Ivan-le-Rouge]

Mine comes from my first airsoft battle, me and friends were communists soldiers in the scenario and my tag was "Ivan", after that I have add "le rouge" due to the color related to communism (and I have buy an airsoft ppsh 41...)

[Batbomb]

The batbomb was a weapon idea during WW2. Bats with bombs should be droped over Japan and then settle into their Hangars and then explode to spread terror and fear  ??? . Pretty sick idea  . I thought it would match into my affinity for Japan46 szenarios. And there is a Noseart in Il-2 named BombBat xD

[Phas3e]

XY GTHO Phase 3, I just moved the 3 over.



I play FPS's under the tag HunHunter after the 57th FG Thunderbolt but that tag was already in use in the IL2 community
