The Original and only Native American Fighter Ace War Party was first conceived as a spirited rogue squadron of Shoshone Indians. The War Party first joined the new skies of Fighter Ace in 1998 from the SHOBAN Indian Reservation at Fort Hall, Idaho. When speaking of the reservation in tribal slang it was always referred to as the "REZ" which explains the origins for the name of the squad. The War Party is open to any and all Native Americans without any testing. ~REZ~ Shoshone (~REZ~1) was one of the original 1998 members.
~REZ~ never show fear and can always be found in the middle of any good fight.... The first great ~REZ~ Warrior (Air_Bear) once said, "I fight in the middle, even when outnumbered, because that is where I will find my targets and get my kills."
~REZ~ is open for petition but you must be at least 18 and have a minimum of six months of Fighter Ace Flying. There is an informal trial period and if there are no difficulties you will be a full fledged Warrior for ~REZ~
NOTE: You do not have to be Native American to fly for ~REZ~.
Receiving a ~REZ~ Name or Number:
In the old-way the chief or elder of a tribe would select a name for the new warrior. This new warrior would wear the chosen name for a period of time and if there were no objections it would become his true warrior name. That is how Crazy Horse and many others were named and is also the only old-way tradition that ~REZ~ follows. The Chief (~REZ~1), or elder, will help all new ~REZ~Warriors in choosing his number or name and if no one objects it will stand.
In many culture's there is 'self-proclamation' of one's identity - "I am a psychic" for instance. Or, "I am the best". Or, "I am a better Fighter Ace Pilot than you are". But the native way is that a person is nothing unless other people see him to be what he is.. In the native way a person can not proclaim himself to be a "psychic" but others can say, "You are truly a Shaman". That is how a Shaman becomes a Shaman and how a warrior earns the respect and title of the great warrior. A great warrior in ~REZ~ becomes a War Captain - much like Crazy Horse was for the great Sioux Chief Sitting Bull.
Why do ~REZ~ fly with numbers? Because we are all warriors of equal value to our people and tribe. Our better pilots know who they are because they are more experienced and stand in control of their powers and abilities in battle. A true warrior is the one you want to have at your side - or on your wing. Flying with numbers confuses the enemy and helps to overwhelm them. It instills in their minds that they have been killed or spared honorably by ~REZ~ and not only by this great ~REZ~Warrior.
