CC6729 Commander Cody here in from orbit over the Rockhampton system, got a garbage scow problem to deal with so just a quick report:

On hearing this was the last family fun day to be had at the Archer Park Rail Museum for the year, a few of us suited up and to wow the younglings yet again.

Big thanks to Dennis for allowing us to use his office as our Command Centre. Troopers ready - Check.

Our friends from the NVG Silistra (formerly Ravenguard) were there again.

Here's one "heavy metal" fan, thank goodness our armour (from a long, long time ago) is lighter and easier to move in.

Commander Cody (Angelman) "I may have to lay off the local treats, or I'm never going to fit back in this armour".

It was a very much like a typical day on Tatooine, very hot. All troopers survived well and considered it a good training mission for future deployments.

Commander Cody Angelman - Out.

We received this email today - well done guys Doppeldaumen1

"I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who was involved today at the Archer Park Rail Museum in Rockhampton. Being a massive Star Wars fan my entire life, one of my greatest thrills was introducing my children to the saga. My daughter's 2nd favourite character, after Princess Leia is Obi-Wan Kenobi so she got a huge thrill out of getting a photo with one of the Tusken Raiders. Everyone was very accommodating to the kids and I know they got a big kick out of it (especially in the hot conditions)."

Thanks

If there's one thing that will make me look for even more trooping opportunities and troop even more, it's feedback like this. Big thanks to fans of Star Wars like Andrew Notworthy
