RLH2515[TK] Posted December 4, 2016 Report Posted December 4, 2016 I, along with many of our friends, took part in a very special event this afternoon. Today was Elijah's last day of school. Elijah is a third grader with terminal brain cancer. The school came together to say goodbye to him and since he is a huge Star Wars fan, invited us to come say goodbye as well. It was very emotional, but well worth it to put a smile on Elijah's face. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 8 Quote
Dark PWF[Staff] Posted December 4, 2016 Report Posted December 4, 2016 Thank you for sharing Robert. This is so bittersweet... great turnout with some fantastic costumes, for a truly great but heartbreaking cause. 2 Quote

justjoseph63[Staff] Posted December 4, 2016 Report Posted December 4, 2016 +1 for Tim's comments. These are the kind of troops that make you glad you are wearing a bucket... just in case the lenses fog up a bit, if you know what I mean. Great job, Old Line Garrison. 3 Quote

tkrestonva[TK] Posted December 5, 2016 Report Posted December 5, 2016 Excellent job, guys. Is there a reason why this thread has to remain behind closed doors (501st Only section) and cannot be placed in the Field Training section? 1 Quote
RLH2515[TK] Posted December 5, 2016 Author Report Posted December 5, 2016 If stuff like this belongs there please tell me also. I plan on doing one or two troops a month and like to share. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote

RLH2515[TK] Posted December 5, 2016 Author Report Posted December 5, 2016 He was so taken by it all and the whole school was behind him. Plus it was awesome to hear Vader say "we have some gooddies for you" he sounds just like James earl jones to. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
