‘CLIFF CLAVEN’ INDUCTED INTO 501st LEGION OF STORMTROOPERS
Hi Folks,
On Sunday, July 1st 2007, the 501st Legion CT Garrison inducted John Ratzenberger into the Legion as an honorary member during Bridgeport’s Barnum Festival Parade. It was a real thrill to listen to him talk about his experiences on the set of Empire. After we inducted him, we gave him a handsome plaque, as well as some other 501st swag.
Mr. Ratzenberger was in the film “Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back”, playing the part of ‘Major Bren Derlin’, though most people know him as ‘Cliff Claven’ from the television show, “Cheers”.
Cheers,
Paul Starybrat- The Force Drainer

Great story Steve,
It is fascinating the things we carry with us from movies and popular culture. We all identify with these recurrent stories and themes (like Star Wars) - Thanks for the cool story.

Actually, I’m the Force Drainer and not Steve….
