News Brief: FN-2198 goes AWOL

A stormtrooper goes missing. No, not that one. Another one.

DISNEY’S HOLLYWOOD STUDIOS, FL — The First Order recently put out a notice alerting the galaxy to be on the lookout for a missing trooper, designated FN-2198. FN-2198 (no relation to FN-2187) did not show up for a normal roll call prior to their scheduled 1500 (3PM for you civilians) March at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. FN-2198 was replaced by FN-1824, who recently came from back from a blaster injury suffered during a Jedi Training Academy session.

Although not identical, the missing stormtrooper recalls memories of when TK-421 was not at his post aboard the Death Star. A faulty communicator was blamed for the miscommunication. Soon after, TK-421 went missing. His empty armor was found in a trash compactor, however he was never found. Death Star officials put out a press release stating that TK-421 died after slipping into the trash compactor, and becoming dinner for a dianoga.

Anyone with information on the whereabouts of FN-2198 should report at once to Captain Phasma’s division.
