Description: Imperial Navy Trooper (Dress Uniform) (Non-saga) Prefix: ID Detachment: Imperial Officer Corps Context: Rogue One, Solo, Kenobi, The Mandalorian and Expanded Universe. Imperial Navy troopers serve in the Galactic Empire and are assigned by the Imperial Navy to serve on board the many ships of the Imperial Fleet. They act as security guards and soldiers, protecting Star Destroyers and other installations, including the Death Star. Other than their main function as a security force, Imperial Navy Troopers also handle hangar control traffic, monitor sensor arrays, and perform various other duties, such as prisoner escort.

For 501st membership only the requirements in black need to be met. The Imperial Officer Corps defines additional, optional levels of costuming excellence. In the page below, requirements for Level 2 “Executor” are listed in blue. Requirements for Level 3 “Imperator” are listed in red.

This Visual Guide has been reviewed by the detachment staff and the LMO team and is certified for use as a minimum approval guideline for GMLs. GMLs are free to approve this costume type. This document is not intended to be a detailed how-to on costume construction; rather a visual guide to be used for 501st costume approval. Details on construction may be found on the respective costume detachment web forum. GMLs uncertain about an aspect of submitted costume shall post questions in the appropriate DL/GML peer review section of the Legion forum. Measurements given in this document are intended to be approximate and generalized; not criteria for approval. Requirements for all 501st costumes are proportional to the wearer in scale, fit and size. Text descriptions are only one part of the guideline. GMLs and costumers must consider both text and pictures (CRL and Reference) when reviewing the costume.
