Google challenge? hmm 1st post on day of joining? Something fishy.

Okay so I have an interesting story for you Star Wars fans out there! In August I was limping an aircraft across country to Fort Irwin California when I got stuck in Lubbock Tx for four days. While I waited on a new APU to show up from Fort Hood I ran into the most interesting people in our hotel. The hotel was putting on a Comic Con of all things, I didn't pay much attention to this since it was at the convention center next to the hotel and its not my thing. So there I was sitting in the hotel lobby having some drinks when I noticed some gents sitting there talking with an accent. One just happened to be no other than Dave Prowse, AKA Darth Vader! Im not the type to get all star crazy so when it was time leave I walked by and said thanks for the years of entertainment and shook his hand. That kicked off a conversation since I was in uniform and the other gentleman introduced himself as Jayce Lewis. After getting a picture with him and talking for a bit I left and went to dinner, later that evening I looked Jayce up and found out he was a Rock Star from the UK. I listened to some of his music and it was good stuff, so I liked his FB page not thinking much of it after that. Well literally a minute later my FB chat pops up and its Jayce, he wanted me to come hang out with him and Dave. I didn't have anything else to do so I said sure why not but it was the VIP day at the event and the door fee was 100.00$, Jayce hooked me up and I got in for free. Hung out with them at Daves booth while he did autographs, which he makes a killing on by the way! Pretty cool time for my first comicon event I would say, but wait it gets better, after the event we all went back to the hotel and hung out till late that night having some laughs and drinks. Both guys are very friendly down to earth guys and I ended up hanging out with them for the next four days, I took them out to the aircraft and they had a blast. Funny seeing all of Jayce and Daves famous friends being jealous they got up close and personal in the aircraft. So I made some new friends for life and if I can ever make it to the UK I have a place to stay now
