Jediexecutioner Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Hi everyone, My name is Al, I am a new recruit of the MEPD. I am with Garrison Carida and am currently stationed in PA. I am excited to finish my TD and carry all the extras that we get to carry, especially the BFG. I also have a clean TK and an ESB vader (A member of the Sith Lord Detachment). I am using FX armor, mostly because most of the size (I am 6'3") and can't really fit inside a different helmet (I wanted an RT mod, but I could only wear it as a hat). I have made my own sniper plate and finished my ab plate mod (thanks Seth!). I will be using an old original spacepack for my backpack (yeah I know there are more that are screen accurate, but I like the spacepack) I might do another pack later, but it will do for now. Anyway, I am looking forward to working hard to get dispatched and looking forward to working with all of you. Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florida_Phil Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Well great! Welcome to the boards Al! Yeah, you big guys make the 5'10" guys like me get the aren't 'you a little short' comments. But it's ok! I like to have cover in the desert, and sometimes it's just so flat that I have to take up position BEHIND a TOUS (Trooper of Unusual Size) Sorry, lol. Just teasing, every discussion I'm in lately seems to be about small versus big troopers. Don't mind me at all! Welcome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MIAMI437 Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 Hello everyone. I've just been recently deployed to the MEPD. I am in the Alpine Garrison living in Utah. First, I would like to thatnk everone on the boards with all the research and knowlegde that is shared. I have learned a lot more about armor here than anywhere else. And a big thanks to Mike 1536. As a newbie, your website helped a lot. Second, FYI, I am not a big poster on forums. So, if you dont see many posts it doesnt mean that I'm not around. If I do have any ideas or come across any info that may not be known, I will chime in! Once again thanks to evryone and I'm looking forward to meeting some of you at CIV.

TD-2318 Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Hi I am Vaughn or TK2318 I belong to the Alpine Garrison. I have dirtied up my armor and am working on the backpack before I can apply for admission. Here are some pics of my armor I have had better ones taken but do not have them (my CO took them at the last event for submission as a TD) These are older I have since added the diamond sniper plate. Please provide feedback on my progress. TD-3129 who is in my garrison has seen it in person. I hope to be finished within a month too cold to paint the backpack.

Remember when you want to apply make sure your photos are good large ones so I can work with them my friend. Once again, welcome to the department.

TD-736 Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Greetings Officers, i want to introduce myself, because i'm the new one My name is Jose, i'm 36 years old, i'm the Outpost Leader of the recently established Austrian Outpost and my Sandtrooper is now nearly finished. I'm a part of the 501st since 2003 and my highlight was, to march in the Rose Parade this year. There where so many great guys, they helped me to bring my armor in shape (dirt ) and to be a good looking Sandie. We finished the work, two days before the parade starts. A big thank you to Paul (TD-8020) for the knee plate, Kevin (TK-812) for the ab plate and the scenics and my brothers Kevin (TD-0013) and Lance for the Workshop in the hotel room (Kevin, if the whole armor would be badly damaged, the knee plate which you have glued, would be still stable and on it's place!) And i also wouldn't forget, Jax (TD-7603), he was a great "wingman" on my left side! As soon i have the possibility to make some new photos of my modified armor, i will send it. I hope i may report "ready for deployment" soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
