On September 6th, 2009, Daniel and me were again invited to take part in the annual meeting of the German Garrison of the 501st.
My R2 in front of the main gate, very early in the morning. The sky did not look very promising.... |

R2 on Main Street, before the gates are opened to the public..... |

Daniel with our R2s. This guy always keeps one hand in his bag, very weird..... |

R2 keeping the crowd at bay, while the preparations for a little opening show are underway.... |

While my R2 waits in the foreground, a Jedi with his R2 is marching in, followed by a squad of stormtroopers |
I |
Three nice girls with my R2, two of them wear the uniform of the THW (Technisches Hilfswerk), which is a kind of disaster relief organisation, who seemed to have a group outing on that day. |

Trooper gang hanging around with my R2, Daniel (with R2 cap) again with the hand in the bag.... |

That´s how an Imperial officer looks like
while being interrogated with the new torture droid series..... |
I |
Jennifer, the very nice and charming ballon girl at the main gate. What looked like an easy job must have been really hard, because of the high winds. |
I |
Yours truly with the ballon girl. |

R2 in front of the troops posing for the "farewell walkby". Behind him are two Republic Marines |

Pretty big guns, pretty accurate....... (That´s an insider joke.....) |
