The 501st Legion

About

Since its founding by Albin Johnson in 1997, the 501st Legion , also known as “Vader's Fist,” has spread the magic of Star Wars to young and old through its authentic costumes and has pioneered fan-organized charity events.

Mission

The Legion's mission is to promote interest in Star Wars through the construction and wearing of high-quality costumes, to use these costumes at Star Wars-related events, and to donate to charitable causes at the local level through volunteerism in costume .

Structure

The 501st Legion is divided into sub-units by country. Depending on the number of members, there is an outpost or one (or more) garrisons in each country in which the Legion is represented. Garrisons may be divided into squads to further structure them at a regional level.
