March 28 - 30, 2008 (Friday - Sunday): STARGATE ATLANTA presents the 2008 FIELD TRAINING EXERCISE: A Live Action Role-Playing Game!
Attention all SG Troopers:
The planet Karosel is formerly a regional capital of the System Lord Yu. Since his death it has become a regional trading center in a sector of the galaxy that Earth has had very little contact with. We have recently signed a treaty with the new government, on Karosel, to provide protection for this planet. Stargate Command is looking for volunteers to pull a tour of duty on the planet. Karosel is an exotic location and garrison duty there will present the trooper with a change of pace and lots of opportunities to take in the local culture. If you would be interested in this duty, talk to your commanding officer today!
