Detail:
At 8:30am my transporter was stopped at the entry to the cadet training facility (New Farm State School). After a brief discussion with the gate keeper I was allowed entry to setup our temporary base for the day. I did a quick recon looking for cadets and sign of any any rebel activity. None spotted. I set to erecting the temporary shelter when another stall holder came and gave me a hand. At this time cadet Ufaild arrived and we set the structure up in no time. Cadet stormraven soon appearead. We then positioned our propaganda material for all to see so that no one could miss us. After a quick briefing both cadets where issued shirts for the day so there would be no mistaking them in amongst the crowd.
At around 9am TR2478 Rents arrived with family to enjoy the days outing. The organiser made her way over to meet us and showed us to our change room. Soon after TS7675 Fallout was led to the rooms by one of our helpful cadets. The three of us armoured up and made our way to the outpost at about 10am.
At the outpost more reinforcements had arrived TK2562 Draco, TB3236 Sideshow Mel, TC8574 Jimcricket and Jedi Hopfot. All where shown to the change rooms to get changed.
On the way back to the outpost I have been told that TC8574 Jimcricket took part in a local game something called a dunny roll toss, which he excelled at so I am told.
TK2562 Draco and TC8574 Jimcricket along with cadet Ufaild did a roving patrol of the school grounds many holo pics where taken.
Meanwhile at the out post TR2478 Rents, TS7675 Fallout, TK 5389, Jedi Hopfot amazed the crowd with our awesomeness, cadet stormraven was excellent in his duty to pass out propaganda material and take holo pics.
The muppet clan dropped in and to check out the day and Muppet handed out purchases to some of the troopers.
After a couple of hours some troopers went and de-armoured and left to enjoy the festivities.
Some younglings wanted a trooper to join them in a photo from the photobooth setup. TC8574 Jimcricket obliged with good humor although he couldn't sit in the booth the youngsters loved the pics.
As TK2562 Draco de-amoured it was time for TB3236 Sideshow Mel to shine and she was a huge hit with everyone.
That pesky jedi must have been bored because he started to muck around with a pink bow, or was it just a mind trick. Initially it was on our new clone then it ended up on me much to my displeasure and TB3236 Sideshow Mel wanted no part of it either.
Many more holo pics taken. As the citizens enjoyed our presence and gave local credits into the collection buckets and they sounded like they where getting full. I requested that one of the organising staff come and take the credits off our hands.
While we waited for the collector to come TR2478 Rents, TS7675 Fallout came back armoured up to wow the crowd again.
Cobra turned up later in the afternoon and again was bearing gifts for a couple of troopers in the shape of shirts.
The day was drawing to an end most of the troopers had de-armoured and enjoying a burger and a drink. The collector came along took the credits away for counting we then called it a day as things where getting pretty quiet.
The outpost was pulled down in record time with the help of Cobra, Ufaild and Stormraven. All things stowed away in the transport we bid farwell to each other and the end of yet another successful troop.
Charity Funds Raised:
I think it was around $100, but the organinsing committee will let me know in the next day or so.
Injuries:
None
Malfunctions:
Some kid poked out the mesh in one of my hovis
Public Incidents:
Apart from the usual, scared kids and crying babies none to report
Mission Status:
Complete success with many comments on how awesome we are...but we knew that already.
I want to say a big thanks to Mrs. Rents and jawas who kept an eye on the stand for bit while we got changed, thank you very much. Also to Sideshow Mel for suiting up and joining in.
Thank you to all troopers in and out of armour and to cadets Ufaild and Stormraven you guys did a great job. I think this is the most varied display of costumes I have seen at one of these smaller troops and I think it impressed the hell out of everyone there. Well done Redbacks.

"You can run, but you'll only die tired."
. But Rents is right although I will probably still be wrangling next troop I am really keen to get out in proper uniform ASAP.
