Well, there's a lot to be said, and there's a lot not to be said. I joined ROBLOX on February 28, 2010 (I always find that funny, for some reason), as a result of an advertisement on the website of another game I played. I was completely overtaken at the thought of a game where absolutely anything and everything could, and probably would, be created. It blew my mind.
The first thing I did was look through the catalog. I searched models, sets, shirts, pants, everything. I left nothing without view. I finally came around to purchasing a shirt and pants from Kakashwa, the ACU top and bottom. I probably wore that uniform for somewhere around 7 months.
I finally got the actual game installed on my computer, and began visiting places on the front page. The first game I visited, I do believe, was Blackhawk Down, made by NerfModder. That game, to this day, is one of my favorite. It was simple, mindless fun. I haven't found a game to this day that has entertained me on the level that it did. It was by visiting many different games that I found out about groups on ROBLOX.
I searched on the site for them, but didn't find much. This was about the time that FEAR still had in the range of 9,000 troops. Hard to imagine, huh? Now that have at least ten times that. After scrutinizing each group and each leader I came into contact with, I decided that I'd be better of making a group of my own. I had previously met someone at Blackhawk Down named Joi, and knowing he had Buildier's Club, I asked if he would create a group for me, and help me lead it.
Thus, Airborne Military Forces was born. My first group, and one that I loved dearly. From this group, I still have many, many soldiers that have remained loyal. Joi and Arow294, to name two of these. Shortly after AMF's creation, I went looking for alliances to form. I was told by one of my soldiers that he was a commander in a group known as Special Class Assault Recon. This group had around 250 soldiers, and if I were to ally them, they would be a great asset to AMF in the future.
Not knowing what I was getting myself into, I joined SCAR in hopes of forming an alliance with the leader, FlaminSoul, and his second in command, 9Dragonz. AMF was still my main priority, but I did participate in many SCAR operations, and after only a day, I was promoted from the first rank, Private, to the third rank, Sergeant, for "exceptional leadership capabilities on the field of battle." In other words, I helped organize soldiers in a raid against FEAR's underwater base.
It was here, in the heat of the fighting, that I met my closest and most trusted friend here on ROBLOX. We were getting destroyed by FEAR soldiers (imagine that), and we desperately needed help. Right as we were about to give in, a SCAR Colonel by the name of Sp1nt3rC311 came up from behind the FEAR soldiers that were pinning us down, and killed them all, saving about 8 soldiers from certain death. To this day, Sp1nt3rC311 and I are the closest of friends, and for good reason.
Time went by, and after a month or two, bringing us up to June of 2010, I was promoted to Commander and Chairman of War, in SCAR. I served as a Commander in SCAR for some time, doing many good things for the group, and many things that others viewed as not-so-good.
In about October of 2010, October 2nd, to be exact, United Military Command was founded. The first group to ever use the Enlisted and Officer rank group set up, we were at the forefront of both technology and leadership. Our officers were trained to the fullest, our soldiers drilled into the best fighting force anyone had ever seen. Unfortunately, we were small, and gained no recognition.
UMC functioned and grew well into 2011, fighting off all sorts of enemies at our dearly loved base, Fort Haldis. In July of 2011, after three months of inactivity, I passed United Military Command on to a new commander, who, to my disappointment, shut the groups down, inactivating United Military Command for the months to come. Lying dormant, waiting patiently for the day of its reactivation, UMC was all but forgotten. In December of 2011, when I finally became active yet again, United Tactical Force was born.
UTF functioned for a short time, up until April of 2012 when it was shut down, and its soldiers moved to the 22nd National Guard Division of the United States Military. For a little over a month, the 22ndNGD functioned as a division of USM, serving the people of the United States of America. On April 29, 2012, I was elected President of the USA/United States of America group, and served for nearly 3 weeks before being illegally kicked out of office by the group owner, who then made it into a Communist group. No names shall be mentioned.
After the USA fiasco, I moved back to USM to serve as the Training Commander, but after only three days, I became bored of and frustrated with the manner in which soldiers acted, so I respectfully resigned from my position of O8, Major General.
Finally, on May 26, 2012, after nearly 11 months of laying in wait, United Military Command was once again activated, and by simplifying our earlier system, which I helped implement into USM during my term as President, the group began growing at an alarming pace. With the help of my second in command and best friend, Sp1nt3rC311, we were ushered into a new era in both the modern military group and the technological world.

After operating extensively and effectively for nearly 5 months, UMC simplified further, becoming a division-sized force as opposed to a full-scale military. With this change of organization, UMC had much more time to focus on the individual soldier and individual training, preparing our soldiers for the conflicts to come. And after what came next, we were thankful for that training.
In the earliest part of January, 2013, UMC found itself in a conflict with a former ally, the United Robloxians of the World. In late 2012, URW had shut down due to over-pressuring, and that ended the alliance. When they were re-birthed, an issue arose out of a meeting with URW's President, and sparked the initial fighting.
What became known as the URW Conflict lasted for nearly a month, approximately three and a half weeks, and tested the skill and endurance of UMC soldiers. Fighting took place primarily in Haldis City and the surrounding areas, and lasted, sometimes, for hours (but that's a story for another day). In the end, URW was pushed out of Haldis, and UMC rested easy.
About a week after the end of the URW Conflict, it was decided amongst myself and my closest friends to create a country to aid in the defense and protect the rights of anyone serving in UMC or anyone wanting to live in Haldis. This nation, known as The Federal Republic of Haldis, began to make improvements and changes to better city life and military service with myself leading as Governor. Up to this day, the FRH stands strong and continues to grow and prosper.
And this brings us to the present. What will come, will come.
