Recently members from the MSG traveled down to Southhaven, MS to participate in the Crystal Ball event. Each year this charity fundraiser is held with a different theme and this year happened to be Star Wars. We had Legion members from 5 states attend this event to make it a huge success. A big thank you goes out to the Rancor Raiders for organizing this event. A wonderful time was had by all and a lot of money was raised for a really good cause.

Members of 5 Different Garrisons in Attendance.

MidSouth Garrison Members Attending the Crystal Ball

TB-2400, The 10th Doctor, Troop. These are just a few of the different names that so many of us knew Ryan Jones under. No matter how you met him you quickly realized what an amazing human being he was. Ryan always had such a bright shining personality and when you were in his presence you couldn’t help but smile and laugh. He meant so much to so many of us and will be missed deeply. If you never got a chance to ever meet Ryan Jones, then you missed out on knowing a truly amazing person and friend.

I encourage you to check out his face book memorial page as there are a lot of great pictures and memories being posted there. The address for the page is

We miss and love you Ryan. You will be deeply missed.

Recently members of the Midsouth Garrison took to the stage with none other than Honorary Legion Member Weird Al Yankovic. Al is always a great host and puts on an awesome show. He even took the time to hang out a bit and talk with garrison members. We always look forward to him performing in TN/KY.
