LOVE seeing your Centurion app immediately following your EI approval! It's possible that the DOs may ask for you to repost some of the other images that you had in your EI app, so just be prepared. Each submission is considered separately, so photo documentation may be needed again even though it may feel like you had just already posted it in your EI app. Good luck!

#6: 07/20/2024 and 07/20/2024 – Anime Messe Moveipark Babelsberg / Germany. The Anime Fair at the Filmpark Potsdam Babelsberg took place again this year with our support. This year we showed our imperial presence in the medieval area of the film park on the market square. There was also an information stand and space for the exhibition of props again this time The event took place again with the support of the Saxony Outpost and the Star Wars Dinner Berlin. Imperial presence at the main entrance. Hoping he doesn't ask for my TK number ... a moment etched in memory. Stay in the shadow and hydrate, hydrate, hydrate. Reminded me of Tatooine or Mustafar. Last orders for the upcoming parade. Imperial Recruitment Office. For the empire. For the good and benefit of a stable and secure society. Even these Rebels and Jedis could be convinced.

Thank you (to you and the FISD staff) for all the time you took to go thoroughly through my armor and the CRL (and found some small things to fix in the description)! I will apply shortly for the centurion level!🫡 cheers, François

#5: 07/13/2024 – Charité Campus Virchow-Klinikum Summer Party. Berlin / Germany. This year we were once again at the summer party at Charité Berlin and we were cordially invited to put a smile on the faces of children and adults, patients and guests. This Troop was something very special for me as it was my 1 year Troop Anniversary. Group picture in front of our photo wall. Guests were able to have their photo taken with us and take the pictures home as a souvenir. A huge shout out to my Squad Leader TK 64650 for the effort and the hard work on the camera. Shift concluded. Relieved by TX 87162 and TX 30365. No further incidents to report. Imperial Might on Display. "Are We Still Doing This Photo Thing?"

Congratulations trooper and welcome to Expert Infantry and the EI Honor Gallery

Great to see your centurion application! (well, we were waiting for it ) As Caleb rightly pointed, we'll need you to add all the images again, ( for the records), by the other hand, for those L3 illuminated parts as gauntlets, chest, jetpack etc. we'll need you to take a moment to take the photos in a darker place so you can see those lights in action. You don't need to suit up again. Thank you. Added to the processing line.

Sure! I only posted the pictures relevant to level 3 mention, but I will gladly do so as needed.

Congrats sir, and welcome to EI!

François Pelletier 20236 letter Mario Congrats! https://www.whitearmor.net/eib/certificates/20236-eib.png

Congrats! So are you now the first EIB commando?

Just saw your approval!!! Congrats trooper well deserved

Looking good, just need a couple of small tweaks to really take it to the next level Helmet is tilted and not central to the armor I would try to even out the gaps between elbow/bicep and the front of the forearms, just makes for a better appearance. Try to get your cover strips straight front on. Looks like you may be rotating your arms in, perhaps to reduce the gap at the shoulder bells, this pushes the shoulder bells away at the top of the shoulders, may need some tighter strapping, many double over elastic. Back, helmet on slant and not central. You could trim the extra belt material if you wished to. There doesn't seem to be much overlap from the shoulder straps to the backplate, your GML may ask for closer photos. Closure of calves not quite straight and small gap between (more for EIB) For EIB make sure your ab/kidney align at the top, they will move when you move but you can adjust between photos. You also have your belt/holster caught up on the left side On the helmet side, tube stripes for L2: Ideally, the tube stripes are positioned approximately a pencil width from the side of the cheek. Yours appear to have a bigger gap at the back. A few things for L2 on the rear traps, they are a little more rounded on your helmet than references. Also the stripes sit a little lower and not quite as long. Did you countersink your ear screws?, they just look to be pulling an a little high For L2 make sure there is no paint on the gums and try to straighten the tops of the vocoder You could bring up your belt just a touch (I know you've adjusted it a couple of times ) The top of the ABS belt shall sit at or just above the bottom of the central and vertical ab button panels. A slight overlap is suggested, but not required. Can't remember if we talked about your large ab plate previously, can't see from your images but you may have over trimmed the base, should have a flat area at the base. Also try to have well lit photos, a few areas a little hard to see like the bottom of vocoder and hovi's. GML's (GWL's) love a contrasting background I don't think you will have much trouble for base approval but that's dependent on your GML, for higher levels definitely a few tweaks

Leading the way! Please welcome TK-23108 to the Stormtrooper Hall of Fame, July 2024! @BAZINGA Troop log can be found here. Congrats Bart!! And thank you for your engagement on everyone's Troop Logs! With Unquestioned Loyalty Jonatan Östling TK-23592 "Nairy" Attaché Ambassador

These things are also what creates character between troopers! I doubt that a GML wouldn't clear you, but at the end of the day - you should be happy with it!

Really depends how it would look after you filled and sanded. ABS paste can take some time to look just right, many layers of sanding and polishing, only apply thin coasts as air bubbles can form if too thick. The other issue with ABS paste is the color can change once it is sanded and you may need to touch up with paint. Personally I would try to trim the ear a little more, it is a time consuming job and many find the ears the worst of their builds. At the end of the day it is entirely up to your GML (garrison membership liaison) as to what they will accept for base approval, you can check with them

TROOP #6 - Garland Labor Day Parade 9/2/2024 After a super busy August, I was finally able to suit up again and make it to a troop. I officially love being in Parades. The weather was incredible (for Texas standards) mid 70s with a nice breeze, which allowed us to have so much fun walking through downtown and interacting with the people of Garland. Even though dozens of kids would call out asking "WHERE'S BABY YODA!!!" There were still tons of people who were excited to see us. Official Pic from the Parade Pre-parade pics

Thanks all, for those tips! For the approval photos, I was only in my living room, which was like 70 F, and sweating like crazy . Maybe I was nervous, too. I will figure this out, BUT... I JUST GOT THE EMAIL THAT I WAS APPROVED FOR THE GOLDEN GATE GARRISON!!!! I am so overjoyed!!! Thank you to all of you for all of the support you gave me! I could have never done it without you! It's an amazing feeling! I will write more later, but just wanted to let y'all know. Party time!!!!

Thanks so much - I thought I'd done ten, then on countback, remembered one was as a handler, so the elusive 10 Badge will have to wait a few more weeks. Much appreciated!

Troop #62 Braehead Macmillan Cancer charity bucket collection. ISG troops hit the mall today at Braehead to help collect donations for Macmillan.

Thank you all very much, really appreciate the support. Hopefully the next 50 will be with some of you all.

Colorado Springs Comic Con Day 2 A hectic fun day. I hope the General doesn't look at this photo or I'm back for another reprogramming.

That is one of the things that did make me nervous beforehand. I have survived cancer myself, so I was putting it in my mind that I may choke up or shed a tear if one of the kids was having an especially difficult experience with cancer. Seeing how happy the kids were is what really made me relax! It's rare to be visited by stormtroopers! I bet the travel distance is a difficult part of garrisons that are so geographically spread out. Many big events in my new garrison are a 5 hour round trip (Nashville, Tennessee) or further (Memphis), so I've found myself having to be choosy with what I may attend. At least events in Knoxville are frequent enough!

10th Troop! First milestone reached. Got to troop with St Alban's Church in Long Island. We helped outreach free healthcare for local residents in the areas.
