Guests: Mark (SL-3940) and Kris (SL-6247)

For this Briefing, Nicky is joined by two members of the Sith Lord Detachment which is the detachment for the costumes Darth Vader, Darth Sidious, Darth Maul and Darth Tyranus. The Sith Lords formed in mid January 2005.

Dedication: This episode of the 501stCast is dedicated to the memories of Luis Draco (BH-5822) of Star Garrison and Jeremy Gurule (TB-1783) of Mountain Garrison.
Luis was working as a civilian contractor in Iraq when he was killed by a mortar, leaving behind a daughter and fiancee. Jeremy suffered from a heart condition, but trooped with the Dewback Ridge Squad since 2006. Our deepest sympathies go out to the families and friends of these Eternal Legionnaires.
