I found the DJB really by association with another member whom has been with the DJB for over a year now. I have been friends with this member for many years since our deployment to Iraq in the same battalion. I meet him there and we found out that we shared the same interests when it came to Role playing games like Dungeons & Dragons. We talked a lot about gaming together and he even set into one of my group’s games a couple of times. He was limited in his ability to participate of course for many reasons but mainly our schedules and units had different missions and our ability to come together was very limited.
As any military person the military sends us too many different places and depending on our MOS, military specialty we can literally go around the world to any place we are needed. Once we returned to the States we each went our ways. I began to prepare for retirement and my friend was assigned to another unit and we didn’t talk for some time. I did see him occasionally on Facebook as a recommendation but not until about 6 months ago had I really looked into his location until I seen him post on Facebook that he was here where I live. I sent him a message and we linked back up and talked old times. Then at one of my groups gaming sessions he mentioned he was with a group called The Dark Jedi Brotherhood and he wanted to run a game for Star Wars that he wanted to incorporate into the fiction of the DJB.
Soon after that he mentioned that a couple of us should join and get characters designed so that we could game using them and create fiction for the DJB by gaming. It was a grand idea but we shall see where we will and can go.
