We are looking for a few good people to join our squad and be a part of the Armchair General website team. We have a lot of exciting things planned, and we need some special talent to help keep those plans in focus. We are looking for the following types of assistance, but if you think you have a skill that we MUST have for our website, or if you are a keen volunteer enthusiast willing to help us bring military history to life, please drop us a line!
PC and Board Game Reviewers – We are looking for freelance game reviewers to help us build our reviews database. Previous published work is preferred, but not absolutely required. Demonstration of your writing skills will definitely be required. We look for balanced, insightful articles that will help a reader decide if a particular game would appeal to his or her tastes. Your best guide is to read several of our recent reviews. And remember – the Website is called ArmchairGeneral; games reviewed should reflect a military theme or require players to utilize strategy and tactics. Email your proposal for a game to review and a writing sample to contact03 [-at/] armchairgeneral.com.
Military History Writers – We will consider proposals for concise articles that offer insight into military history, but we no longer publish lengthy battle accounts or analysis, military bibliography and the like. Any articles should be 600–1,500 words long. Email your proposal and a writing sample to contact03 [-at/] armchairgeneral.com.
Traveling Through History – We will consider proposals for concise articles, accompanied by 6–12 quality photos, about historic sites that would be of interest to our readers. Remember, those readers are across America and around the world, so any subject needs to have sufficient appeal to a widely spread audience. As with other articles, these should be limited to 600 – 1,500 words. Email your proposal and a writing sample to contact03 [-at/] armchairgeneral.com.
Book/Movie/DVD Reviewers – We have a need for qualified people to read history books and then write short (600–1,500 word) reviews on recent books, movies and DVDs that have military or military history themes. Email your proposal and a writing sample to contact03 [-at/] armchairgeneral.com.

Can Arm Chair General come out with a Blackberry application so we can read and post forums from either the Blackberry, Iphone, or Android? That be great and it keep me entertained in my boring classes.
I would like to prepare an article about General George Kenney, MacArthur’s Joint Forces Air Component Commander (JFACC) and his innovative leadership in operations such as New Guinea and the Battle of Bismarck Sea. I believe Gen Kenney’s leadership and combat record has been eclipsed by the ETO (European Theater of Operations) ‘celebrities’ like Spaatz, Eaker, 15th Air Force and 9th Air Force.
Gen Kenney developed ideas in 1942 (his Air Task Force) that we saw in the Composite Wing of the 1990s. He convinced Gen MacArthur, a domineering personality himself, (and General MacArthur had little confidence in air power) that air power should not be wasted on piecemeal close air support operations. This was years before Ike came to same conclusion about the Normandy beaches: strategic air power supports the FEBA (Forward Edge of the Battle Area) by fixing and isolating enemy forces for destruction by the ground forces. And 50 years later, Col John Warden explained the same to Gen Schwarzkopf…in my own wartime experience…Operation Desert Storm.

I tried to send you an email including a sample of my writing at contact03 [-at/] armchairgeneral.com. but my computer says the email address you provided is undeliverable.

Armchair General (ACG) and ACG online feature a unique, interactive editorial approach that invites the reader to decide the course of action in challenging historical scenarios, to step into the shoes of a battlefield commander.
