Minnesota Residents

[117GamingSquadr]

Good evening everyone,


I'm reaching out to see if there are any fellow 405th members currently located in Minnesota. I'm interested in getting involved with the 405th and would really appreciate any guidance or insight from those who are already part of the community—especially those nearby.


I do own a 3D printer, although it’s been giving me a bit of trouble lately. Still, I’m eager to dive into the cosplay side of things and would love to chat with anyone local about builds, armor tips, events, or just being part of the 405th.


Feel free to reach out—I'm all ears and excited to learn.


Respectfully,

Squadron Commander Phil

And as Jacob mentioned Minnesota falls under the MidWest Regiment and local events and discussions for that Regiment can be found here:

One final note is that as the 405th does have an organizational structure and several levels of volunteer leadership staff to help facilitate our real world convention, charity, and community event appearances, so while I see that 117 Gaming Squadron" is the name of your PodCast, signing your posts here on the Forum as a "Commander" might cause some confusion with the staff members here who oversee and our responsible for our local units as Regiment and Battalion Commanders respectively.
