The Generals of War (GOW) squad was formed on September 26th, 2006 by Moreno, Christian, & Baraka. Many of our founding members came from our old squad, The Company of Heroes (COH). Many of our founding members, including Kanoma, Valhalla, Getcrunk, Insane, Simpleman, Vs2nice, DerekFR, & Smokie. Even today, we have few of our founding members still with us. The others have either left the squad, or retired from Black Hawk Down (BHD) to move on to the next greatest game. A few months later, BillyJacK joined our squad. Afterwards, we as a squad grew up in the ranks of other BHD squads, slowly getting better and better.

As a squad, we had our first squad meeting during the month of December of 2006. Thus, is when we created our Squad Council. These members including Moreno, Vs2nice, Kanoma, Vahalla, Baraka, Getcrunk, Insane, Smokie, & Simpleman, all in which we were the backbone of our squad. We quickly gotten together and discussed future plans of GOW. Made up our rules for members to follow.

We went threw many server providers through the year, many including, FUA (2 month), DGservers (6 months), Primary Target (1 year), and now we have moved on to Freaks-Network.

The Generals of War have long been together, staying strong & sticking together as a squad. We have stuck through with many issues and problems. Many of which, two of our founders leaving the squad, hackers, server problems, website or teamspeak downtime, or low activity of members & server.

We have also played in many scrims & matches against hard working squads, and some that we believe do not play fair. Some that we have won & lost. But as a squad we believe in being respectful, kind, & courteous. Like the saying goes. To get respect, give respect.

July of 2007 we have added our very own CSS division, which grew pretty big. But overall. CSS wasn't a great game that we thought should stick with GOW. So we closed the CSS division down.

December of 2007 we have added our very own COD4 division to start off with the new game. We have ranked up in the server to about 285th out of 18,000. Due to server being down, we gradually went down to rank of 2300th. Now we have our new host and ready to get it back up.

Toward the end of 2007, & the beginning of 2008. We have gladly accepted Cavmedic23, & Et into the Squad Council. We plan on bringing more dedicated members into our Squad Council over the years as some come and go.

Our Greatest Glory is not in never falling, but in rising when we fall.
