2/18/23 I give permission for FISD to repost my photos on social media in an appropriate fashion.

 

My first troop at the National Museum of the Marine Corps during their Semper Force day (10/13/2018)

 

That's me behind Baby Vader.  Aren't I a little short for a stormtrooper?

I've been terrible at keeping up with this log, so let's fix that!  Here are the last several troops.  The first couple are a nice winter memory, given how hot it is now!

 

The Holiday Parade in Reston, VA from November 2018

Today was a bit of a tear jerker.  We trooped a conference of families with children suffering from a terminal degenerative brain condition in Crystal City, VA.  There were a lot of smiles from the kids. There were also many times they would take our hands and not let go.  This is why we do what we do.

Semper Force 2019 at the National Museum of the Marine Corps.  My wife and I had our first troop here exactly one year ago!

Reston Holiday Parade 11/29/2019

This is the 10th year Garrison Tyranus has marched in the Reston parade.  We had a great turnout and a lot of fun.  And it was nowhere near as cold as last year!  Although I still wore hand warmers in my gloves (wimp).

Scottish Christmas Walk, Alexandria VA 12/7/2019

 

This is a hometown parade for us and a great opportunity to kilt up!  We marched with a great group of Mando Mercs and Rebel Legion.  The question of the day yelled from the crowd:  "Where is Baby Yoda?"

May 2021

We're back!  This was a troop at Casey's Automotive 4th Annual Car & Truck Show benefiting Ellie's Hats.  They raised $14,000 at the show this year.  The group had a great videographer who put a FANTASTIC sizzle reel together with awesome effects.  Take a look at the link below.

November 2021

Hystio-Ty Fighters 5K, Burke Lake Park, VA

A great Star Wars themed race benefitting the fight against a life threatening blood disorder

 

A rousing Imperial turnout on a VERY cold morning

I thought we should ignore the Tusken, but my Officer opted for the stare down.  No pot shots were taken at the runners.

November 2021

Inova Children's vaccination clinic, Fairfax, VA

 

A very fulfilling troop, raising spirits for the hospital staff, parents and especially the little troopers

And SOMEONE needed to keep an eye on the motley Mandalorians and Rebels who were lurking around.  They were fun to troop with though.

I've got a lot of catching up to do.  I've been so bad about updating my troop log this year.  Here we go!

Second troop of the year was at the Inova Schar Cancer Institute.  This was a last minute troop for young boy undergoing cancer treatment on his birthday.  We were able to entertain other kids as well.  No photos from this one, but I did geta picture of the Proton Treatment room, where we were with a young man finishing his last treatment.  I swear it looked like it belonged on a Star Destroyer!
