dutchy Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Hey gang, The Dutch Garrison has attended the EFF2010 in the netherlands, the biggest event in its kind in the whole of Europe. The number of visitors hit the 25.000. Lot's of people were dressed up as maid's,knights, manga characters,Lord of the rings characters etc..you name it and it was probably there. The fun part was that those costumens were of a high level as well but as soon as the troops entered the scene all camera's were focused on us. The day was really intense, in armor from 10 in the mornig till 4:30 in the afternoon. I even managed to loose my sniperknee and walk around with my belt hanging out of place.. Here you have a link to the dutch kids journal which is broadcasted before the regular news. Skip to 5 minute 30 secs for the start of the topic, and then mr TD-1560 will give you a salute at aprrox. 6 minute 26 sec.. and all the jibberish you hear is actually dutch.. http://player.omroep.nl/?aflID=10899657 Pics in the next post..

FIVE Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 I saw some pics from this event on facebook, but none of these. That's got to be one of the best "backgrounds" I've ever seen! Fantastic! Thanks for posting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchy Posted April 26, 2010 Author Share Posted April 26, 2010 Thanks bro's... Yeah it was really great to troop with my new gang.. I think that you need to install a player for the clip, especially because you work with a Mac I think. But here 2 more pics. This is what we did to rockers without the long hair.. and one on patrol with a female jedi in our custody.. ..and all the pics I show here are mine or made by other members of our garrison..it seems we weren't the only people who were in costume as we found out...

Merci bien bro'.. Since 2009 the event is split up in 2 events. One in april and one in september. So this year in september there will also be an EFF on another location in the Netherlands, in Arcen to be exact near the german border. If you go there again this year maybe we can hook up there. À bientôt!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
