We’ve covered who the ‘hornets’ are, but- what got us here?

I’m Everett, founder of Task Force "Hornet" (TFH). Before starting TFH, I was part of two mil-sim teams, MI-E.R.T and TFR, where I gained valuable experience over several years. However, as time went on, our priorities began to differ, and I realized I wanted to build a team with a more focused, tight-knit community—one where every member’s development and contribution was central to our mission.

On June 25th, 2022, that vision became a reality. With TFH, our mission was clear from the start: to push the limits of what can be achieved as players, while creating an environment that prioritizes teamwork, respect, and continuous improvement. Unlike larger teams, we wanted to maintain a size that allowed us to focus more on one another—on developing our skills, refining strategies, and forming stronger bonds that go beyond what you can find on the field.

We are driven by the strategic, immersive nature of mil-sim games. Each game is an opportunity to not only compete but to learn and grow. We take the lessons we’ve learned on the field and apply them to our training, gear upgrades, and team development. Our goal isn’t just to play—we aim to break the mold of what others think a team can accomplish, both on the field and within the community.

As of today, December 29th, 2024, I’m proud of the journey we’ve made, but I know our work is far from over. Looking toward 2025, I feel our future is stronger than ever. We’ve built a foundation, but the best is yet to come.
