Had my first troop the other day. Was a fundraiser at a local high school to raise money for needy kids (school clothes, supplies..ect). Great thing was is that it was in the school district I grew up in. So I just had to call in to work to make this troop. The trooping part was actually pretty easy. Nowhere near the malfunctions I was expecting. Only had problems with my hand plates falling off and my thermal det came off and I couldn't get it back on. Both will be easy fixes. I did discover that I want to mod a few other things as well. Like fan placement so my lenses don't fog so easy. My garrison mates are awesome! They were very helpful throughout the day. The other costumes were A jedi, an Imperial officer, Sandtrooper, Tie Pilot, BARC Trooper, and a Rep Commando in weathered black. All looked fantastic. They dubbed me the "Shiny Rookie", which I hear I'll carry until I do another costume, lol. The troop itself was awesome. The kids couldn't get enough of us and I was hugged more today than I think I've ever been. Took lot's of pics with them. Even had a few mom's and older kids want some pics too. It was everything I'd hoped it would be and more. This is definitely something I plan to do for a long time to come. First few are of my OG mates. I'm the Shadow Stormy in the 2nd half. I was in another section of the HS while some of these were taken.      Some garrison mates. I was off in another section of the school when those were taken.        One Bad a** Republic Commando!  Me posing a little, having some fun.

Thank You! I'll take that as a big compliment coming from a veteran such as yourself.   (we need a TX smiley  )
