U.S. ARMY INFANTRY Abbreviation USAI Group Numbers 128 Leadership CO: Captain Lex Decon, Alpha Company/Alpha Platoon Sergeant, Thilisus Goals Clearing Malton's most dangerous suburbs of zombies with extreme prejudice. Recruitment Policy Accepting Applications Contact Group Message Board Backup Message Board Welcome to the USAI! Commander's Mission Statement I want to take this opportunity to welcome all personnel to the most disciplined, most loyal and fearless fighting force in Malton. Our Mission is to execute missions which will have the greatest impact in helping the general survivor population of Malton. We are a team first, we leave no team member behind and we fight to the last man. Why join? See more of Malton We move to where the zeds are, much better than being bored in the same suburb for weeks Big group size but small group feel You wont feel lost in the bureaucracy of other big groups, USAI is separated into 8 platoons so we can be in different parts of Malton, the platoons are about 25 soldiers each, broken down into 4 man fireteams Professional We are serious about playing UD; we still have fun but you wont find an bunch of half-asses Low level players Learn how to play the Urban Dead from a seasoned cadre of players. Learn from pros so you won't make rookie mistakes Level up quicker You are only responsible for earning XP; the Bootcamp staff will provide defense, barricading, healing and reviving. Have more fun It's a lot more fun during those first days as a level 1 when you have a group to interact with. Mid level players Challenge yourself You have all the basic skills and can gain XP easily but is it a challenge still? You can always sit and XP farm the odd feral but is that fun? Take charge Show your abilities and become a Fireteam Leader, or possibly even a Platoon Commander Have more fun Taking on more sophisticated missions will be more fun than the droll of 'cade, kill, heal, repeat High level players No group in UD allows you to be in command quicker Our unique way of command allows any soldier of CPL or higher to lead a platoon for an operation. Simply put your name in the lineup, and when it's your turn, the whole unit is yours. Share your knowledge of the game Tired of newbies making dumb mistakes? Train them yourself. You have already mastered playing UD as an individual, but can you plan your own operation with your allies and soldiers? Leadership opportunities We attract many low levels recruits so we are always in need of fireteam leaders. Recruitment Policy We accept all character classes all recruits will be trained to be a soldier first. Players with prior actual military service are wanted but it is not a requirement to join. Our missions are very challenging for even mid-level characters. We may not be the group for you. High level players, miss the challenge of the game? Do you remember back when you were a low level and you had to log on often. Dropping into a patrol mission is like that all over again. You will regularly be surrounded by zeds in the only caded building for blocks. You will get a real sense of accomplishment when you wake up and the burb has gone from red to green; and then you'll know its time to move on and start all over again. We have changed our policy towards new low level recruits. We now incorporate New Recruits right into a Active Fireteam in each Platoon, where you can operate in real time receiving hands on training and experience while leveling up and learning how to play UD. You will be assigned to a fireteam with high to mid level soldiers who will help you learn the ropes and look after your safety. As you level up you will be given more responsibilities. Depending on your experience you may just spend a week learning the way the unit works and can be awarded a battlefield promotion. Loyalty is one of the most important attributes to this unit. If you are looking for a challenge, adventure, disciplined fighting, to be part of a team, but more importantly, a family, then pick up your rifle, sling arms and FALL IN at the position of attention!

Steel Army Corps The Sun Organization Roster Complete Roster Impostor List History The U.S. ARMY INFANTRY was founded by four guys in Dunningwood who wanted to get their act together: Gersh, Peter Cop, Todric, and Johnny Lunchpail. Three of the four were either ex or current US Army, two were Infantry soldiers. Captain Gersh was the commander, his sheer battlefield presence inspired many others to join. Quickly, a small fire team became a squad and that squad became a platoon. As the unit was still small they had to watch each others backs and the unit formed a tight brotherhood. They developed a distinctive style of play; highly coordinated timed attacks in conjunction with allied collaboration. They focused operations on areas in need of help; not running away from trouble but towards it. Originally joining was by invite only, and you needed to be a mid to high level player at a minimum. After a time it was recognized that building a soldier from the start would make for well trained soldiers and bootcamp was started. Shortly, after MAJ Gersh, the original founder and leader of USAI, could not keep up with USAI activities due to work constraints and appointed Johnny Lunchpail to be leader. Since then USAI has formed three other platoons and started a second company: Bravo platoon in October 2006, Charlie platoon in January 2007 and formed Echo platoon as the start of our second company in November 2007. Foxtrot Platoon our latest unit formed was established in April 2008. During the period between 2008 to 2010 USAI saw a slow decline of interest in its active within the Quarantined zone with many of its Officers and Senior Enlisted taking extended periods of leave. Many returned to re-establish and regain USAI's activity and foothold. USAI is now under the Leadership of Captain Lex Decon. We proud are of the work that we do, but do not feel the need to boast about it. We are professionals who do their work for the sake of our fellow soldiers, not for silly bragging rights. Below is a list of our past operations, as you can see, USAI has traveled throughout Malton helping numerous suburbs and survivor groups.
