More Arma 3: www.youtube.com/playlist

In today's mission we jumped into combat in Europe in the late 1950's, the Soviets have invaded Scandinavia and it's your job to try and hold the line! I love this era as it's this weird mix between WW2 and Vietnam era equipment for both the Soviets and the Americans (NATO). Initially we jumped in from a cute lil' Choctaw helicopter and later on we supported the main combined arms push into a more urban environment, also the M2 Carbine is baller and nobody can stop me from switching it to full auto here and there!
