HM Induction of Alex – Baltimore 11/3/18
The Rebel Legion decided to induct a recurring resident of the Ronald McDonald House of Baltimore as an Honorary Member of their ranks; they invited the 501st to send an Honor Guard, and both OLG and GT were in attendance. The Emperor himself made an appearance, and introduced one of his apprentices: Darth Maul. The young dark lord is the favorite of inductee. Surrounded by all the Star Wars characters, the Rebel Legion presented him with a Honorary Member Certificate; the Empire is lucky to have such a cunning spy within the ranks of the Rebel Legion. Both the child and his mother were overcome with emotion from the support shown by all the Star Wars groups. GT recorded a brief interview with the young fan, who explained that the Sith Lords were his favorite of all Star Wars characters.
