May the Fourth Be With You | Justin Weiss
May the Fourth be with you! To celebrate this Star Wars holiday, we have a special guest. We welcome scout trooper TB 52503 from the 501st Legion Empire City Garrison. The man behind the mask, Justin Weiss, tells us all about the inspiring commitment behind the 501st, the amazing charity work they perform, and how Justin himself became involved and started acting the part of a stormtrooper.
