Cool Star Wars photos - Stormtrooper and US Army

I am not sure what this photo is really about. A photo of some US army guys saluting a Star Wars Imperial Stormtrooper. Imperial Stormtroopers are Emperor Palpatines personal army and used by him and his commanders. Where as Stormtroopers in real life, were specialist German soldiers in the Army in World War I, also known as Shock Troops.

Star Wars Cool Fact. There was a division of Imperial Cold Assault Stormtroopers called Blizzard Force and they worked with AT-AT assault vehicles and together they worked on Hoth to find and destroy the Alliance base.

Cool Star Wars Photo Fact -

AT-AT
Imperial All-Terrain Armoured Transport vehicle, an elephant like assault tank that was built at the Kuat Drive Yards. These are around 15 metres tall machines that walk around on four articulated legs. They require a crew of 3 to operate, although that much of the war machine's motion is controlled by complex computers. 

The Star Wars AT-AT has two heavy laser cannons and two  medium sized blasters on its head-like cockpit, it was designed to instill fear in the enemies of the Empire. General Veers was a proponent of the AT-AT, and conveniently hid the truth that the ATAT can easily be tipped over by a simple cable wrapped around its legs. This weakness was used very effectively by the Alliance on planet Hoth  but still the Empire use the AT-AT at later battles. The AT-AT can carry up to 400 kilograms of cargo plus 40 troops  .
