Prepare for close air support for this weeks ARTillery!

Fluttershy is just the sweetest bomber in the allied Airforce.

Fan Fiction Review #033: Something To Remember Me By

Something to remember who by?

Author: ChaoticHarmony

Everything must end eventually. Ponies will drift apart as they grow, each of them pulled down a separate path of life. For some, it's a paved road lined with bright lights and jeweled sunshine. For others, it is merely a simple trail with only the light of the stars, sun, and moon to guide them.

Yeah, this is going to hurt.....

Attack of the Memes: #003

REALLYby *Mn27

Last time there wasn't an attack of the meme's because of lack of production. However, weeks episode generated A LOT of Fluttercord content.

Be Advised: This is a HUGE post of stuff, and lots of artwork. Have Fun!

Fan Fiction Review #028: Keeping Your Hooves On The Ground

Diabeetus...

Author: InsertAuthorHere

   The Cutie Mark Crusaders ask Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy about what happened just after the events of the Cutie Mark Chronicles; specifically, what happened to Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash immediately after the race. Reluctantly, Dash and Fluttershy delve into a tale.  A tale of a young Fluttershy's amazement at the world she had landed upon, and a filly Dash's desperate quest to save her from that most evil of places: THE GROUND.

Will this story melt the Drill Sergeant's frozen heart? Grab your insulin and head past the jump to find out!

ARTillery Inbound #016

"You Shall Not Pass" by Inu-Hoshi-to-Dark Pen

Steel plating is useless in protecting the wearer in the rain. Then again, if your fighting some sort of beast off screen your probably not too concerned about that...

What you would be concerned about is how soon your next fire mission will arrive, in this next ARTillery Inbound!

Fan Fiction Review #026: Letters from the Crescent Sun

Ever heard the saying 'Fighting for peace is like bucking for virginity'?  I know these guys wouldn't agree.

Author: WanderingGoose

There is no specific description. This review will cover the following series of short stories: Ride With the Moon in the Dead of Night, Unforgettable Delivery, A Promise to the Future, On the Wings of Loyalty, and Kindness Under Fire.

Jump on into the cockpit, we'll give you the brief on the way to the objective, after the break.

Fan Fiction Review #020: Not in My Air Force You Don't!

IT HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION THAT THIS STORY HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM FIMFICTION. IF ANYONE HAS A LINK WHERE IT MAY BE FOUND, PLEASE LET US KNOW VIA EMAIL.

'Sup my military bronies? Spangle here with another review... yes I still do these! Especially when the story is about the US Air Force!

This story was recommended to me by one of my fellow Airmen, to whom I can only say "What did you just make me read."

Author: Twystron500

I'm not joking. This is close to how it really is! The insanity that I deal with everyday! This story definitely deserves the random tag. It's also loosely based on true events in my life. Rainbow Dash is the leading Senior NCO of a Com squadron. Pinkie's this spastic Technical Sergeant. Twilight is a grumpy Master Sergeant. Fluttershy is the adorable Commander. Yay.

What do I mean by that comment? Find out after the jump!

Fan Fiction Review #017: The Youth in the Garden

*sniff* Oh, dear Celestia...*sob*....... Uh, OH! H-Hey guys! I didn't, uh...*sniff* didn't see you there! What, this? Oh, it's nothing. *sniff* I just, um... got dust in my eye! And, I'm... allergic to, uh... s-stuff.


DON'T YOU JUDGE ME!!

Author: The Descendant

September 17th, 1862 became the single bloodiest day in American history when a battle was fought along the Antietam Creek near Sharpsburg, Maryland. 

Yesterday, Fluttershy hummed happily as she watered her garden. 

The two events are not unrelated.

Will this story survive the wrath of the Drill? Find out after the jump!

ARTillery Inbound #014

OMG! What are you doing Lance Corpral Shmuckatelli!

Unfortunately SOME PONY decided to go and do something stupid on the parade deck. Then SOME OTHER PONY decided to upload the pictures on to Facehoof, and now they are here.

In any case, we must suspend our non-mission essential activites while we adjust fire for the next ARTillery inbound!

SITREP #019: Season 3 Announced for... Marine Corps Birthday?

Well... this is a pleasant surprise/coincidence.

Season 3 of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is airing on November 10th, 2012 when 237 years ago the Marine Corps was founded in Tun Tavern, Fillydelphia. Did they do this intentionally to subtly give a shoutout to of the one of the most rising subsections of the Brony fandom? Maybe. Then again, we should hardly be surprised considering 1. We're awesome. 2. We're Tara Strong's favorite Bronies. 3. Shining Armor is in the episode and seems to be playing a game of tag with Lord Somber.

Post in the forums about your speculations! Will this season be awesome? Or will it be more awesome?

SITREP #016: Season 3, Borderlands, AIT

Pinkie is not demonstrating proper repelling techniques. Note the lack of harness.

Quick little update for your weekend:

1. Hub commercial for Season 3 with about 1:50 of footage from the Crystal Ponies episode.
2. Brony Borderlands 2 class
3. One of you just had a fun conversation at AIT  BCT with your Drill Sergent. Then someone posted it online.

See the madness below!

ARTillery Inbound: #013: Are you not entertained?!

GET OVER HERE!!!.....Um, if you don't mind.by *joelashimself

... ummm ...

TWILIGHT IS CLEARLY FINE

...

She is obviously wearing a glow belt underneath, and that is what is keeping her okay, that and cartoon physics. I mean really, she seems just kind of annoyed and surprised. That and Fluttershy is clearly very sorry.

And just like in real life, you've all earned enough veterancy or something to drop a MOAB of Art. So let the game focused art begin!

ARTillery Inbound! #012: Fast Movers Edition

Due to some beneficial changes in our Escalation of Force proceedures, we now have Fast Movers (or "animations" as the hippy peace niks like to call it) for our ARTillery Inbound Volleys.

We call it, "modernizing the arsenal for force protection".

Included will be Jets, fighters, miniguns, and racing(because I got carried away). Additionally, almost every piece has MUSIC so be advised.

Also, I've got some good intel for Canterlot Gardens at the end of the post.

Fan Fiction Review #013: The Cold Hand of Mercy

Spangle: "Umm...this is a new guy, so be nice to him OK? Or don't...I'm sure he has thick enough skin being in the military, right? You know what? Forget I said anything. I'm going back to my corner now."

Author: Staeg Masque

In the prime of her life, Fluttershy is contacted by a stallion named Blanche, who comes to her as she sees a bunny she was tending to, Hector, off into the mysterious place Blanche introduces as The Ever. He tells her that she must now take on the mantle of Death in his stead, as the decision is already made and cannot be reversed. Fluttershy is forced to accept, and learns many lessons about the true nature of Kindness, in all its facets, what Death really represents, and whether being Death is truly a bad thing.

The Cold Hand of Mercy

Why isn't this titled 'The Cold Hoof of Mercy?'  Geez. Review after the break!

Killroy's Comics Corner: 003: 1st AP

... and you thought GySgt Emery wasn't impressed with what the recruiter's sent him!

Due to complaints filed by your parents towards your local congressman, the United States Marine Corps has adopted a softer and more nuanced approach by having Fluttershy as the new Kill Hat in your platoon. Which in reality is probably more terrifing than intended...

Or I made all of that up, and it's time for another Killroy's Comic's Corner featuring 1st Awesome Platoon!

They've got two more comics after the break!

Applejack doing recon for her buddies in the tank.

Saunter is busy becoming a professor in math, so I did this one. Firing the artillery!

Also, we have a new way of labeling the source, as below.
