Redback Command Staff

(CO) Commanding Officer Kevin Chamberlain (Kev Vader)

It came to pass that when nominations for the position of Commanding Officer were sought, Kev Vader was left standing out front when the rest of the Squad took one step backward.
As a punishment for this act by the Squad, he regularly makes forum posts in excess of 500 words and will mercilessly buttonhole troopers to see if they actually read them to the end.
Since signing up to the Legion in early 2008, he is a veteran of over 60 troops – chances are that if you have met Darth Vader in Queensland it was probably him!

(XO) Executive Officer Rick Oliver (Cobra)
Rick was a Founding Member of the Redback Squad, and served as Squad Leader in 2008-9 during which time the Squad expanded at an amazing rate. Rick is well-liked and respected throughout both the Redbacks and the rest of Australia, and his experience makes him the natural choice for XO.

(GML) Garrison Membership Liaison Ken Seymour (Muppet)
Ken is a prolific Star Wars collector, and has an ever growing collection of approved 501st & Rebel Legion costumes to his name. Ken has taken up the challenge of ensuring that the Redback Garrison’s costuming standards are second to none in Australia, whilst also keeping abreast of the many costuming requirements required for 501st membership.

(CoG) Captain Of The Guard Richard Hall (Draco)
Richard is a veteran of the SCA costuming group and has long been a well-respected member of the 501st Legion. His even-handed and fair approach to issues is a great asset to the Redbacks.

(CFO) Charities and Financial Officers Steven Biggs (Phantom) and Rebecca Biggs (Bextar)
Steve and Rebecca have been instrumental in revising and implementing our new policies and procedures for how we manage our increasingly large donations to the numerous charities we support.

(GMO) Garrison Merchandise & Branding Officer Scott Piper (The Scotsman)
Scott has been active within both the Squad and TAG in organising and researching numerous merchandise and branding products. He was also The Redback Squad’s first Elite Infantryman and first Imperial Officer and will have 2 more Redback costuming firsts to his name quite shortly! As GMO he will be responsible for ensuring both the Legion’s and our new Garrison’s branding and image is correctly managed and promoted throughout Queensland.

(GPR) Garrison Public Relations Officer Adam Lochowicz (APOK)
Adam has proved to be a tireless campaigner for the Redback Garrison. He has excellent communication skills and will be responsible for being the primary spokesperson for the Garrison at official events, for liaising with media and corporate entities, and for ensuring that information distributed by (and about) the Garrison and Legion in Queensland is accurate and up to date.

(GWL) Garrison Web Liaison & Webmaster Jacqui Doyle (Moxxxie)

Jacqui joined the Redback Squad late in 2008 as our first female Stormtrooper and, as a TK, quickly set a fundraising record that may never be beaten in Australia! She also has proven web design and website management skills and is well on the way to designing the best Legion website in Australia (ours)!
