We had a fun filled & busy trooping weekend with 3 holiday themed troops for @squad7-501st.bsky.social
Two were helping to give out toys with Santa to kids with autism & kids who otherwise wouldn't get toys.
Bad guys doing good and helping make smiles during the holidays. #starwars #501stlegion #FLG

Had a fun day off trooping two #halloween troops for the #501stlegion Florida Garrison Squad 7. First one was at the Disability Learning Center and then at Wolfson Children's Hospital. It's very rewarding to help kids smile who are going through a lot more than they should be. #starwars

I'm thrilled to share pics of our #50stlegion FL Garrison Squad 7 challenge coin! Lots of work went into creating this coin. The teal version on the left is the command staff version limited to 30 and the silver one was limited to 320. The razor wire edge represents the Squad 7 logo. #starwars

Explosions bloom in the distance, fierce and bright,
AT-ACTs wade through waves, a formidable sight.
Each laser's swift beam, a streak of fiery light,
As the Empire's might clashes in valiant fight.

His armor, weathered tan, and accents of pale blue,
A guardian on the beach, steadfast and true.
In the heart of the battle, where courage takes its hold,
A silent sentinel, a story to be told.

Thanks to #google #gemeni I have a cool new profile pic of my shoretrooper armor & a poem! #starwars

Upon Scarif's shores, where sands meet turquoise tide,
A Shoretrooper stands, with blaster at his side.
Palm trees sway gently, 'neath a sky of war,
As TIE fighters scream, a metallic, deadly roar.

Imperial mail call and coin trade! It's been a long wait but my 2025 Baltic Outpost racing shirt finally arrived. I also wanted to show off two coins that I acquired via trade while I was at Disney Hollywood Studios for a day a couple weeks ago. #starwars #501stlegion

RS makes really good TK armor & from what I understand, it's usually custom to your build. Like others have said it's better suited for smaller framed guys.
My TK armor is from MTK & it's also good. 850 armor works makes decent TK armor. I bought a replacement part for my shoretrooper from them.

LMFAO. That's awesome!

501st Legion Italica Garrison patch.

A collection of 501st Legion Spanish Garrison and Rebel Legion Templo del Valor patches.

This is a picture of a patch from the Skywalker Ranch Fire Rescue EMS. I obtained this while waiting in the VAT refund line at the Barcelona airport and the gentleman behind me noticed that I was wearing a 501st Legion T-shirt and said that he works for George Lucas at the Skywalker Ranch and had the pictures to prove it. I was beyond excited to get this patch.

I just returned from a 20 day trip to Italy, France, Monaco & Spain. It was an amazing trip full of adventure & memories. I met two #501stlegion troopers to trade swag & sightsee with in Florence & Barcelona. It was refreshing to be in FREE countries where people are accepting & respectful.

That's a sick picture and I can see why it's one of your best. Very similar to one of my favorite TK pics of me. The sun and palm trees reflecting on my bucket put it over the top.

I did not know of these. I appreciate you bringing my Star Wars literacy up a parsec.

Star Wars 501st Legion command staff coin. The gold coin is in a protective case. The front of the coin is the 501st Legion logo with the stormtrooper being white. It says Vader's Fist in Aurebesh across the top and 501st Legion across the bottom. The back is all gold with various artistic designs from the Star Wars galaxy. In the center it says 501st staff.

I'm very proud to be one of the bad guys doing good and feel very honored to be an elected leader in the #501stlegion
This Legion command coin will be treasured by me for years to come.

I'm so proud to be the part of an organization that values and supports inclusiveness and respect for everyone.

Even though our early morning troop was cut short due to a thunderstorm, the #501stlegion #squad7 had a great time at Jacksonville Beach, FL for the Waves of Gray 5k for brain cancer. This troop is personal to me and I'm thankful to the 10 other troopers who gave their time. #starwars #shoretrooper
