Well I Joined to see what you all think of my army and see if I can get help when needed. I am creating my own army called the Blackjacks. I named them that because, well its a long story... Basically I am in the US Army Infantry, I have been deployed 3 times for a year each and I have been blown up 21 times, wounded several. I figured it would be cool to make an Army based off that. I'm trying to create a back story for them but I'm not too good at that kind of thing. I'm hoping to find someone who is good at that kinda thing.
Anyway, I have put up a few pictures of my army thus far, and i will be updating them as I get them built.

If you've been blown up 21 times then you must'v been stitched back together 21 times too. So that would make you a messed up Zombie American Jedi!!

21 times??? WOW. What kind of army are you looking at? Imperial Guard might be the closest "future" version of the US Army, though I could see you trying out Space Marines, too.
Or you could do Black Templars - maybe it would go better with your Blackjack theme. Pics follow:
