On the evening of August 14th, members of Squad 66, The Rebel Legion, and Fanforce patrolled the Campbell 16 Cine in Springfield Missouri for the opening of STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS. General Skywalker, Boba Fett, a pair of Imperial Stormtroopers, a Tie fighter pilot, General Kenobi, a Jawa, an Imperial Technician, Mara Jade, and assorted Jedi were among those present. There was also a mobile Imperial recruitment station on site to make contact with those who are interested in joining the ranks of the 501st Legion. The evening was a success. There were no notable Rebel or separatist uprisings. Aside from a pesky Jawa making numerous attempts to steal our Gonk Droid, all was peaceful and our prescence was merely a precautionary measure. Many fresh-faced Legion hopefuls talked with our recruiter and we hope to hear more from them in the future.

Special thanks to Bracy Martin and the theater staff for their generous support and thanks to all of the costumers who attended.
