    In the Scope: Davsank

     

    What's your callsign?

    Davsank.

     

    Let's get to know you – can you describe yourself in five words?

    Describe myself in five words? I'd have to say I'm Determined, Loyal, Direct, Honest and a Leader (Not to be confused with Boss!).

     

    Tell us about your history in TAW.

    I started my career in TAW as a member in the World of Tanks, a short while later, I stepped up to be the Training Specialist for the EU battalion (at the time I also doubled as a Drill Instructor due to lack of members in the DI office). About a month later I became the Staff Officer for the EU battalion, but had to put on leave 2 months later as I was still in the IDF (Israeli Defense Force) at the time and was deployed due to rising tensions on certain fronts. I remained in Active deployment for 6 months after which I was honorably discharged at the rank of Rav-Seren (The Israeli equivalent of Major). After a month I was reinstated to the Smite Division and was stumped again by real life issues. I was then discharged from TAW. I still visited the TeamSpeak Server as a guest when I had the time to keep up with friends and one day as I logged in to catch up with friends - my best friend in TAW (To this very day!) Tigerfang, let me know that TAW was looking for an experienced SO to help spin-up the Word of Warplanes Division. I contacted Tazmanian - the SUL for that division, got reinstated, and now I am the Executive Officer [and now the CO] for the EU battalion in World of Warplanes.

     

    What was your initial impression of TAW?

    When I just joined TAW I was looking for people to play World of Tanks with, and someone in-game suggested I'd check out the TAW website (I can't to this very day remember who that was). when I saw the Code of Ethics and the Policy I was hooked immediately! There are many clans out there - non of which are as organized and managed as TAW.

     

    Tell us about your division, and what you do there.

    World of Warplanes is the 2nd title from Wargaming - the 1st being World of Tanks. We are currently in spinup as the game was only recently released from Beta. The job of an Officer in a spinup Division is rather different than that of an officer holding the same position in an active division; One must on the lookout for members to fill up key positions (both field leadership like SL\PL and Officers) while recruiting in game, looking for active members in other divisions who might join yours, building the wikis, setting up the BootCamp manual for you division (while working closely with your counterpart from the other Battalion) - it's not an easy job, but luckily I have TigerFang at my side to help me, and Tazmanian as my SUL to guide me.

     

    What would you like someone considering joining TAW to know?

    TAW was here before, and is here to stay! If you are looking for more than your normal everyday clan, TAW is the place to be!

     

    Tell us about some of the people you've met during your time in TAW.

    My best friend in TAW and one of the best people I've met in general is Tigerfang - he joined World of Tanks shortly after I did, and we became good friends from day one - we worked on training sessions for other members, played hours upon hours together and developed a sixth sense while playing together - each one knew what the other one is going to do without saying a word - something that still serves as in World of Warplanes! Another friendly person I got to meet was Tazmanian - my current SUL - it is rare to find someone with so much commitment - no only does he lead the spinup - he commands Sentinal, is in charge of the TAW university and still manages to be a father and husband! I also got to meet with KingCheese, the Commander for Vanguard and yet another link in my chain of command - KingCheese inspired me in many ways, what I've enjoyed most however was seeing him improve his skills in World of Warplanes after training with Tigerfang and myself.

     

    What might our readers be surprised to know about you?

    I'm on of the very few Israelis in TAW, I was however born in Russia and for some reason speak English better than I speak Hebrew and Russian combined. Also I was able to beat AIDS! It's a bit of a long story for the newsletter, but I'd love to share it with you, come visit me in the WP channels in VG :)

     

    For their time, effort and dedication, this member will be awarded our In-The-Scope member tab for completing the interview.
