Welcome Trooper!!!
18 years ago today, the Founder of the UK Garrison Graham Campbell sadly passed away.
Graham was a man of vision who saw how much the World of Starwars could create a legacy that was far bigger than any individual. As he would say "Lets go to Work"
The 501st UK Garrison were invited to attend The Dudley Group NHS Star Wars day at the Children's Ward Russells Hall Hospital Dudley.
No rebels were found but there were some very suspicious Jawas present.
The UK Garrison attended the Black Country Brick Show, West Bromwich. Some amazing skills were demonstrated, and recruitment for Deathstar v3 is underway.
Its #maythe4th , and we would like to take this opportunity to go back in time and introduce you to 3 gentlemen who back in 1977/8 help to start the Star Wars revolution.
We have not one but two exclusive interviews with Honorary 501st legion members, First an interview with the original TK421 (why are you not at your post??) Stephen Bayley the only stormtrooper to actually be 'named' in StarWars a New Hope,
