Dedication
The 501st Legion is saddened to announce the loss of Marc Brugger, SL and TK-4103 of Florida Garrison on November 2nd. Marc’s portrayals of Darth Vader and a Stormtrooper brought many smiles to fans of all ages during his three years with the 501st. Marc was a dedicated trooper, droid builder, friend and father. He will be truly missed.
