New thread so Sister doesn't hurt herself bumping the old one.

If you're interested in joining this ever growing circle of Firefly fans, whose visual theme is based on the Independent Army seen in Firefly and in the visual companions, visit this thread to read the specifics, which are all very well laid out:

We represent a newly-formed unit of Independent soliders at the outbreak of the hostilities (prior to Du Khang and Serenity Valley).
First and foremost, remember that this is a fan-based organization, and our first rule is "Show up. March. Have Fun!"

Our inaugural march took place at DragonCon in Atlanta in September of 2007.

We do have a few rules and regulations that must be met in order to be considered as a member, including uniform requirements and weapons requirements. These will be outlined below. Please be sure to read over all the information and confirm that you can meet all of these requirements before applying for membership. We are not trying to keep people out, but we do want to present a united, uniform Battalion of Independent soldiers, and one of the best ways to do this is to look the same.

Totally agree. I miss my 76th family and not being able to make D*C for the 2nd year in a row really sucks.

Course, the feds have an island up for sale right now. Any of the 76th independently wealthy?

Great reading so far, but I am almost finished despite reading slow.

Well, the new comic, Serenity: Float Out hits stands this Thursday. That's something to look forward to.
