Hello and apologies for the long wait! Today we, alongside @buildersleagueunitedreal have made a temporary truce to celebrate the anniversary of us getting founded!... Which is very long overdue, but our archivist got lost and we were forced to wait (And before you ask, yes, both us and @buildersleagueunitedreal have a joint archive managed by Mann Co. due to some logistical kerfuffle). However, now the wait is over and both of us have a very special treat for you all! Some old photos from days gone by! One from the 30s, and a very rare piece from the 20s! Truly antique. Context of both below! Photo 1: A typical busy day at RED back in the 30s. This photo was taken during the most intense moments that day. Our photograph was almost turned into mush by a stray rocket! It was a crazy day, just like the day before it and the day after it. Nowadays, you could say that nothing has changed at all. Photo 2: Forgive us for the quality of this photograph. It was being constantly moved between multiple storage locations and was even briefly lost during WWII before being archived. Most were lost to time, but this one is one of the few remaining. It was taken during the 20s trail/elimination matches which were supposed to pick out a new mercenary team for future matches. The RED team was completely destroyed the day this photo was taken, leaving only one person alive, that being the sniper you see saluting here. He was accepting the official invitation to join the final RED team (at the time) given to him by the foreman. In fact, that sniper here is the same sniper you can see being tended to by the medic in the background of the first photo. Lucky guy. Remember to check out @buildersleagueunitedreal post as well, as it contains different photos. See you later!
