This weekend we learned of the passing of TB-5549, Anthony "@Spectre5549" Tran of Southern California Garrison.  After a brave battle with cancer, Anthony has joined the ranks of the Eternal Pathfinders.  He was a member of the 501st Legion for over 10 years, all of that time served as a Scout Trooper.

Just from a personal standpoint, Anthony was one of the first troopers I met when I joined the Legion.  Back in 2014 for whatever reason, there weren't a lot of active Scout Troopers.  So whenever I trooped, I was usually paired up with Anthony.  He was a kind, gentle soul, never sought the limelight, and was always happy to just get in there and do the hard work.  I can think of several armor parties where the rest of us were fooling around, and Anthony had all the electronics of our Speeder Bike out, toiling away for hours to make sure the damned thing worked for our next troop.  

The Legion thrives on troopers like Anthony; he will be dearly missed.

This is a great loss for our Garrison, Legion and society. He was a wonderful man and one of the kindest people I've ever met.

At the beginning of the Pandemic I would stop by his place regularly to pickup 3D printed PPE mask holders that he was printing while personally going through cancer treatments. His selflessness was something to aspire to. Even though things were tough for him he was still concerned with helping however he could.

You'll be greatly missed amigo.

He sounds like an amazing guy. I’m sure he’ll be sorely missed by friends, family and fellow troopers. My condolences to all. RIP.
