If you have a digital copy, I can run it through a translation app.

Thanks for all answers - they were very helpful.
I wrote article and it will appear in May (problem is that it will be in Polish, but if you want, I will show you photos of it).

Please do you accept cookie bribes ?

Yes, it's good idea. I will do that.
 
No, I don't need bribes - it's all for the glory of the Empire, right?

Love that idea Ben. I'll have to keep that in my list of useful things to do with the scouts. Especially if I am in uniform for it.   Also, how far did you take ROTC?  I ask as I'm a army vet myself.

Outside of Girl Expo, a Girl scout event we've done a couple times, there was a troop of very bored looking boy scouts. I was invited over to judge their monkey bread cook off, which was awesome. Then, my ROTC experience kicked in, and I tried to teach them how to march. The scoutmaster laughed and said "It'll never happen". But I managed to get them in line for some facing movements, and jumped up and down and screeched when they made mistakes. Eventually, they figured out the game and started goofing around until I stormed off lol. They were very surprised when I came back with stormtroopers, had them try it again, and the boys showed up my troops, who couldn't even stand in a straight line. The boys loved it and the adults got tons of pictures and laughs!

Sounds awesome. My eldest made a bb8 car this year. And won the derby with it.

Same 

Thanks for these, I've been thinking about this a lot lately. My kids are in scouts, my wife is a den leader, and we've talked about having our garrison out for next yuear's Blue & Gold, but that does seem limited. We;re doing our Pinewood Derby this month, and I'm wondering if that wouldn't be a great event for the 501st also, since there'sa lot of time the kids are just waiting around for their cars to race. PLenty of time for interaction there.

When I saw the title I thought this was going to be something about Scout Troopers hahaha

Yes, being part of the great cog.

Mate I have to agree with you I have spent 18 years in and am still in and plan to hang around for a while yet lol I think I identify with the uniformity respect and discipline of the Empire.

Respect,  most people see a person in a sharp looking uniform. Then just like with a military member think respectfully of them.  I was in the army for ten plus years. A sharp looking uniform with medals opened doors for you. Not to be too funny, but most of my ex-girlfriends were because of the uniform and job it represented. That respect earned as an infantryman and the rank on my arm showed.  Its an unspoken thing to most. But some people thank you for your service. 
 
But the respect of the uniform is where I believe most of us unconsciously want to wear a specific imperial uniform. And we have cookies. :). 

You both are a case for the ISB  

The Star Destroyers.  I love the look and sound of a Star Destroyer coming out of hyperspace.

Close second the whine of TIE fighers.  Imperial hardware, uniforms, everything is just more "cool" than the Rebel equivalents.

Why the Empire?  

Because it works.  The Republic of the last hundred years was rife with corruption and the worst individuals not concerned with the people but their own position and aggrandizement.  The elected monarchy of Naboo served as a model for then Chancellor Palpatine to ensure that the best interests of the galaxy were always first and foremost of his reign.  He even purged the unelected mystical elites called the “jedi” who tried to murder him and take control of the galaxy at the end of the Clone Wars.  

Under the Emperor’s reign we no longer have the war started by the Jedi Master Count Dooku, and the corporate interests of alien organizations like Trade Federation, the Techno Union, the Banking Clan now are used for the benefit of everyone.  The Empire is the only way beings around the galaxy can go about their lives free from the fear of chaos and murder.  The brave men and women of the Imperial Starfleet hold back the deluge.

Ever since the opening scene of new hope with the star destroyer and then the storm troopers blasting their way on to the rebel ship I liked the imperial costumes better .And who can forget Vaders entrance the rebel costumes just don't have the same effect 

There is a sense of pride in the officers with crisp sharp military purpose, compared the miss match haphazard outfits of the rebels

Well, I mean, he was a Weasley.
 
I suppose now he's also Farmer McGregor....

General McGregor! I love it.

And what if 99% of the trailer did not end up on the show. 

May be he is wearing a his own wookie

He looks like a Stark with that coat and regarding the location winter is already here  

So now they're making teasers for trailers lol? I guess it is coming out in 3 months. What I saw looks intriguing. Lando's pimp fur coat ha!

Finally a porn stash officer!   Lol. Now we need goatee officer and lumberjack beard officer too and we will be looking our parts!  Says the goatee staff officer guy
