we have now learned the only thing that'll stop the 1stNY is getting an Upper Respiratory Infection and being cut off from the internet.
1st NY is so based most of us don't even see new arty being added.
We somehow managed to grow by one whole person, take that everyone who says you can't grow in alpha.
Multiple people brought us honor by team killing stryker during the last event, as well as getting 10 kills each for some gunners8)
