Thanks everyone! My Garrison also gave me a cool certificate to mark the milestone.

[14] Desoto county Light garden "The circle is complete" This was the place of my first troop last year and let me tell you, It was one of the Hardest troops I've done! With the rain came low attendance, my helmet fans didn't help my vision at all ( I suspect it was because of all of the moisture in the air), one of my brand-new Hovi tips broke off, and my Dlt-19 broke. The only plus part was being with my fellow troopers although I left first. And as always, it was a pleasure trooping with the Boss. Stairs were the first obstacle to over come. Nice and slow... Ugg, the rain. Here we are looking for people😆 The boss got to hang out in the Lego tent to stay dry. Look at all that rain. That one is in the books.

TROOP #10 - Fort Worth Parade of Lights 11/24/2024 Troop 10! I totally forgot to post it here a few weeks ago, but here it is. This was an insane event, there were so many members marching, and THOUSANDS of people attending the parade it was awesome. TK-54832 and I also had fun decking out our kits in Christmas livery. We also marched with the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Tarrant County, to raise awareness for the program.

All the images need to be posted in the CRL thread (or sent to our DL @themaninthesuitcase), backgrounds are edited and there needs to be a last look over the text. Once that is complete it is sent to the Legion Membership Officer team to decide if the CRL is complete and meets their requirements and ready for inclusion into the legion. More info on the process https://databank.501st.com/databank/Costuming:CRLGuide Notes to Keep in Mind Typically as much time will be spent researching and looking at reference sources as it will take to make / assemble the costume. Ideally, there are clear full body pictures of the front, side, and back. When in doubt, email and ask [email protected], providing all reference for the character in question. Understand that a CRL undergoes many revisions by many people before publishing and that it is possible that there are multiple people working on the same costume at the same time. There are no guidelines on creating a new costume aside from reference material, and a costumer may be asked to change things multiple times. Understand that a CRL is not intended to be a detailed how-to on costume construction; rather it is a visual guide to be used for 501st costume approval. Detailed instructions, designs, and specific measurements are to be recorded within the detachment forum’s WIP documentation. The costume will not be approved in the Membership Database until all of the steps to create the CRL are completed. The wait period from completion of costume to approval can be lengthy. Pictures of the costume being worn, as well as costume parts requested. The first completed costume is not always the CRL model. Sometimes multiple applicants images are used to complete a CRL. Images should be captured against a simple, contrasting background, at high resolution, with good lighting. The Detachment and/or LMO may ask for assistance in writing the text of the CRL, but this is not always the case. Before any CRL goes live, it will be reviewed, edited, and approved by the LMO Team. Once approved, the new costume will be added to the membership database, and the CRL published on the wiki (Databank).

Another milestone for the Scottish garrison. It must be something in the IronBru.

Looks like a lot of work went into the lights and displays around you, looks awesome!

Very cool, congratulations on 75 troops!

Always rewarding hospital troops, nice work trooper

I'd like to request 75 troop badge please. https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/52819-75tk-12775sithping-troop-log/page/6/#comment-793303

Congrats!

Awesome! Congratulations on your 75th troop!

Wow, yeah, I really can't tell the difference between the metal and the plastic! I've not gotten such a good finish like that before, even with the Bambu X1C or the Carbon M3 Max (industrial resin printer). This is very encouraging, thanks for sharing!

Well done, congrats! Trooping is what it's really all about

Troop 75 Etobicoke, Ontario December 15, 2024 Starlight Foundation /Toys R Us troop This troop is hands down the most special troop for me and this was my 3rd time doing it. Starlight Foundation teams up with Toys R Us and opens up the store 2 hours early to provide a safe and quiet place for families with disabled children to visit. Each family is given a $50 gift card to shop. We greet everyone as they come in and then wander through the store interacting with the families and children. It means so much to see the smiles on their faces.

[82] Navidad En El Barrio ~ NRG (12.14.2024)

76. 2023-12-12, Musikhjälpen 2024 (The Music Help), Sundsvall (Hero) 77. 2023-12-13, Musikhjälpen 2024 (The Music Help), Sundsvall (Hero) 78. 2023-12-14, Musikhjälpen 2024 (The Music Help), Sundsvall (Hero) 79. 2023-12-15, Musikhjälpen 2024 (The Music Help), Sundsvall (Hero) These four days have been crazy, to say the least. "The Music Help" (lazily translated from Swedish to English) is an annual charity event that is a live TV broadcast! For one week, three presenters are locked inside a "cage" where they only eat soup and take turns in presenting so that there is coverage 24/7 for a week. Swedish national television and radio collaborate to send out the broadcast on both mediums. The way it works, is that people donate X amount of money to get a song of their choice played live. There are multiple Swedish artists that perform inside the cage and people auctioning off items or artworks and the like. This year's charity theme was: "Everyone has the right to survive their pregnancy", and the money that was donated will go towards different projects that will reduce the amount of deaths during a pregnancy and delivery. Every two seconds, someone dies during their pregnancy/delivery - and 70% out of all the deaths happen in Africa, and we know what the solution is, so summed up most of the deaths are because of the lack of money. So, what is our role in this? We are outside the cage, dancing, giving high fives, spreading Star Wars love and we're collecting money for this charity event as we've done now for 12 years in a row. Dare I say we've become "famous" because of it, and are expected by the citizens to show up - and the pure love that we receive outside the cage is incredible and it really shows. We've received so many hugs and donations and my heart is filled with peace and love. 76. 2023-12-12, Musikhjälpen 2024 (The Music Help), Sundsvall (Hero) Someone caught us on TV the first night! We had a late start due to travelling 4 hours north from Stockholm, to Sundsvall. Some of our members had travelled for 6 hours (and they drove south, crazy to realize how big my own country really is). 77. 2023-12-13, Musikhjälpen 2024 (The Music Help), Sundsvall (Hero) 78. 2023-12-14, Musikhjälpen 2024 (The Music Help), Sundsvall (Hero) The day started out... well... I was hyped and ready to go out, or so I thought. I had forgotten a crucial detail! Here you see me as I realize it! This has never happened for 78 troops, but my 79th troop... disaster struck! I had just taken everything on and had to take most of it just to take it on again! So annoying!!! We were invited into the cage for an interview, and to push our initiative (there are multiple initiatives where people send money to, and the Swedish Garrison had one too) - I was not one of the people inside the cage, but we stood outside in the front row to cheer them on! @Coil was the Din Djarin. 79. 2023-12-15, Musikhjälpen 2024 (The Music Help), Sundsvall (Hero) I'm as I said filled with joy, and we've done an amazing job. As you might have seen - we opt for not wearing our TDs, because we are out in public and the cage being situated in a square in the city (a different city for every year of the event), it gets really crowded! I think someone got their TD stolen once and since then we tend to take the safest option and just simply not wear it (although I feel brave sometimes). It is a non-cannon event anyways so it is acceptable. We've been outside in negative celsius for four days, trooping about 5-6 hours every day, and I can tell you - the condensation inside the helmet is insane! We always need to pack our helmets with paper tissues to soak up the water that builds up, especially on the inside of the pertruding edges that goes around the mic tips. I'm sore in every part of my body because of the constant dancing for hours! But I close off this year of trooping with an amazing event on my resume, and this year's total was: 38 troops! Until next time! Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year!
