From January 2016 FISD Newsletter, The Everyday Trooper

"“My favourite troop is doubtless my first Star Wars day, which took place in Milan. We marched from Arena Civica to the Duomo of Milan. I was very tense, because I was about to walk among thousands of people in the center of Milan, which is the economical capital of Italy. At one point we received the order to march and we simply started. My feet were going on their own. I had taken my duty so really serious, that I was careful to stand straight with my back and wield the E-11 properly. And after 2 km we arrived at the Cathedral of Milan, the Duomo. There, we were surrounded by thousands of people, children, young, old, who stare, admire. In that moment I felt fulfillment.”

Davide is fulfilling his childhood dream of being a stormtrooper and is excited to be a part of something bigger than he is. TK-92011 has earned Expert Infantry status and is close to submitting for Centurion. He describes the sense of family he has embraced within his local garrison. He talks about finding not only brothers and sisters, but also fathers and uncles. Besides trooping with the 77^th Alpi Squad, Davide likes hanging out with friends in his hometown of Genoa."
