Vader Rocks

I was so shocked to hear about this yesterday. Jenny and Mark Ryner were the first troopers I met when I first looked into joining the legion. She was so supportive and helpful while I was building my tk and then snuck away from work for about an hour to suit up when I did my first troop. Such a great person, always had a smile and could make ya laugh at anytime. She will be greatly missed

Great pics troops, love it!!!

Congrats on your first troop, looks like you had a blast.

This is awesome

Great troop, thanks for sharing

It was a pleasure getting to be a part of this awesomeness. Largest group of TK's I've had the honor to troop with, it was a great day. Thanks to Ken and the Florida Garrison for getting the epic pic accomplished.

This is a great thread you've got going. For myself, anything GUNS N' ROSES would do the trick for an intro. That band has been my soundtrack since I was 13yrs old. The only thing I have more of in this house besides the obvious SW items is Slash. Albums, posters, guitars, store displays, action figures, etc.... You name it, I've probably got it. I always thought "Ladies and Gentlemen" by Saliva would make a good intro as well.

Well done troopers. Congrats to the first time trooper

Awesome story, thank you for sharing.

Welcome to the boards Matthew. We can always use some more shiny white armor here in Indy. I look forward to your build and trooping with you in the future. Like Mark says, head on over to our garrison page and make yourself at home.

Great job, congrats on your first troop.

The actual parade march is only about ten minutes, but there is a lot of "hurry up and wait" time spent in the backstage area. Keep in mind that it is May into June in the middle of Florida, so it'll be warm no matter what. I've done the last two years and always do the first weekend, temps seem to be pretty tolerable.

I plan on attending the first weekend again. Marched the last two years, its an awesome experience. I always tell troopers its something you have to experience at least once in your trooping career.

You've got some good looking work done there trooper, and in such a short time span. Looking forward to watching your build.

Congrats Eric
