Another vote for "The Immortals". I'm not keen on the "Old Guard" as this has some negative aspects in today's parlance, might as well call them the "Old Fossils". |

dang, by the time I got to this topic all my nominations had already been used! I favor using an historical term, or something from Latin or Greek to lend gravitas or arete. I also *really liked* "The Howling Commandos" but recognize that TMP is not going to pick this one! I can't bear to think about how "grognard" would be mispronounced, as someone pointed out, plus it's too Napoleon-centric. So I second the votes for Praetorian or Immortal. has anyone spoken up for: Centurions? if so, my only original nominee is: Valkyrie (a nod to the distaff side, but the boys won't like this) |
