This is where you need to make a post telling who you are and what your 501st Legion ID number is (if you have one). You are not required to be a Legion member to participate on this forum but you must be at least 18 years of age.
My name is Colin Wright, otherwise known as Heathrowtrooper. I am a cleared member of the 501st UK Garrison as TB 8751 with a Biker Scout costume. I am in th early days of putting together a Snowie and I am really pleased to join the Blizzard Force board. I will do a lot of reading before posting daft questions and info/ pictures as the costume comes together.
As background I am in the UK with 16 years experience as a American Civil War, Ameican West, US WW1 and US WW2 reenactor have a 1943 dated Jeep) and have been on the UK Garrison board since Nov 07. I cleared in Oct 08 with the Biker scout and have had great fun on my first 5 troops.
I look forward to communicating with the Snowie community and getting my outfit up and running.
Hail to the Empire

looks like we may be able to field a whole squad of Snowies in the UKG next year

If you have a "Squad of Snowy's up and running next year... aim for having it ready by about hmmmm.... May ... TS-2611 and I might be heading for UK, Wales and then France and Germany after ... So we might have to get together for a "Hot Chocolate together"

Thank you all for the friendly welcome - I have a line on armor, although with the exchange rate at the moment I may hold off for a while to see if it recovers. Still plenty of soft parts to be getting on with once I have done the all important research.
I will add the Snowie build to my web-site www.heathrowtrooper.org.uk, but until then I have a ton of updates to do on he Biker pages.
Keep well all.
