See what these four Rebel heroes had to say about their love of Star Wars:

  • Dan Zehr, English Teacher / X-Wing Pilot – on flight suits and Shakespeare: “Putting on that flight suit is something I will never forget. I felt like I was a part of something I have loved since I was a little boy. Pure magic! And that’s the same magic I bring into my classroom”
  • Jennifer Landa Busch, Wedding-Planner Extraordinaire – on celebrating milestones, Star Wars-style: “A few hours after we got engaged, I suggested having a Star Wars-themed wedding.”
  • Charley Burns, a 9-year-old fan / “Little-short-for-a” Stormtrooper – on falling in love with Star Wars: “I love all the sci-fi fantasy space coolness of Star Wars. And I also like all the strong girls like Princess Leia.”
  • Amiyrah Martin, dedicated mom / Rebel parent – on Star Wars’ lessons on heroism: “There was always that family center within the saga, and once I became a mom, I understood the importance behind doing what’s right, standing up for family, seeing friends as family, and of course, risking your own life to save your child (props to Darth Vader).”
