Here are some sigs I thought of.
Old FCDC (pre-1975) staff:
1. We don’t take any Ka-Ka from Ka-Khans.
2. I was a Jedi before Jedi was cool.
3. I swiped LRH’s cigarettes.
4. Hubbard wrote to us for advice.
5. The Few, the Proud, The Hard of Hearing.
6. I slapped General Patton. (Really--he worked in our CF.)
7. We did it our Way.
Feel free to add on.

Jim Miller (Qual Sec, Cram Off, etc) used to tell a story of walking down the street one day in 1976, and running into LRH. Everyone always humored him about this story, and eventually he stopped telling it.
Well, it was probably true. LRH WAS living in a brownstone on Q street at that time. From http://www.xenu.net/archive/books/bfm/bfm20.htm
"Next morning, Kima drove downtown to look for more permanent accommodation. She found a comfortable brownstone on Q Street in Georgetown, only nine or ten blocks from the Washington org, and signed a $1300-a-month rental agreement.
Within a few days of moving into the brownstone, Hubbard had recovered his composure. Telex communications were set up and the usual retinue of messengers and aides moved in, including Jim Dincalci, who drove up from Florida towing a U-Haul trailer loaded with the Commodore's personal possessions and private papers. Daily reports began arriving from Mary Sue, many of them detailing the activities of Operation Snow White. 'It was strange to think', said Kima, 'that while we were lying low in Washington, other Scientologists were going through the files in government buildings not far from where we were living.'
In the bustling streets of Georgetown, Hubbard felt safe to go out and about, although he grew a beard and took to wearing a curious assortment of old clothes in the fond belief that he would merge into the cosmopolitan atmosphere. 'He bought clothes from Salvation Army stores, real gungey stuff,' said Alan Vos, one of the aides who had moved into the Q Street brownstone. 'It was strange because on the ship he had had all these phobias about dust and smells and how his clothes had to be washed, but that all vanished when we were living together in Washington.
'He used to go out walking and sit in the sidewalk cafés on Connecticut Avenue. The Scientology office was just a couple of blocks away and he was often handed flyers by people recruiting for Scientology; he thought it was very funny. One day he got talking to a woman in a restaurant about Scientology and he suggested she should go round to the org on S Street. I heard later that when she got there they asked who had sent her and she pointed to LRH's picture on the wall and said, "That man over there." They went crazy and started an investigation on her, thinking she was some kind of government plant.
'It seemed to me that LRH was happy in Washington, happy to be getting out, mixing with other people, going to the movies. On the ship he had no idea what was happening in the world. He thought about moving his headquarters to Washington and looked at a property - there was a hotel for sale on Dupont Circle - but Mary Sue talked him out of it. She didn't like Washington and convinced him it was too dangerous. That's the kind of thing she used to do - play on his fears and psychoses about violence and police.'
Hubbard spent quite a bit of time researching in the library of Congress, reading up on black magic and the occult, and most days he took a walk in Rock Creek Park, where he believed that FBI agents were trained. He bought a trick camera with a lens that looked sideways and amused himself by taking pictures of trainee agents for future reference. Kima Douglas thought he was mad to take the risk. "

Joe, the guy who ran a music shop on Connecticut Avenue, claimed that LRH came into the store every so often. Joe was old school Italian and Hubbard told Joe that all Italians were naturally Clear.
Back in the day I really identified with this as I have Italian ancestry and ... attested to Natural Clear. I shoulda just asked Joe and saved some $$.

Jim Miller, another good guy I met when I passed by years later. There were actually a number of LRH sighting earlier in the 1970s. Myself include. I was an expeditor and told the HAS I saw LRH (3 times) he said I couldn't have. And don't tell others that I did. I found out later that at least three others had reported the same thing, but we never talked to each other about it. I found out later when I saw Greg Wilhere again. He confirmed LRH was there and asked me why I didn't go up and talk to him. I said I was too nervous.
Whatever happened to Jim Miller?

May I be so bold as to evaluate for you? You didn't approach him because you were afraid he would put you on the cans and pull your withhold. What withhold you ask? You were withholding the thought that here in front of you was a guy who didn't and couldn't deliver what he promised and there would go your $30.00 a week salary.

He married an ex-CIA agent, they had a kid together. From what I have gleaned the relationship went cold and his ex and kid moved to a city in the mid-west. He moved there so he could be close to his child. This is all second hand, so it may be completely bogus.

I never saw him but know someone who did, or thought they did. Like most, he was too intimidated to go up and ask. Right in front of Scwartz's on Connecticut.
Also, do you remember the Ron's journal's that used to be taped or written each year? I remember in Rons Journal of either 76 or 77 Ron made reference to FCDC and said something about "visiting" FCDC and the way his bust was oriented outside of the LRH office. zIt was written to make it seem he'd come floating through without his body. More likely he came into the org, probably late at night when the nightwatchman, usually Peyton ??? (smith?) was guarding the front door. And when I say guarding I mean sleeping by.

I am so freakin jealous...
i would have loved to run into that guy,wow-so many questions to ask -so many comments to make. Of course my comments and questions would change depending upon where on the grad chart - I was at the time.
When I was a newbie-before much auditing-I would have asked-"Ron,Sir-when we finish clearing North America -can I be in charge of the Canada?" Now if I met hubbard after departing the cos as a class 6 and OT7- I would ask with a gun to his head-"What's the name of the bank?-the password? and the account numbers?" Thank you very much.

Hubbard was no Budda. He thought he was, and his body was round, but that's about all. I remember Chuck Judge said LRH was fat and a few people wanted his head for that (but it's true!! Hubbard was fat!) I probably saw him and didn't know it as i spent alot of time around DuPont Circle area in the mid-1970's before making the error of taking the personality test and falling for all the horsefeathers. Tom Clapp once tried to reg me and have me call my boss in the middle of the night for $. I left and he told me i was an SP.
Thank you thank you very much. Tis a joy to be an SP! I wish Hubb-erd was still alive as i'd like to see him sittin in a jailcell for all the harm he caused.
Anyone go to the anon rally in June? was it successful. I couldn't make it, maybe next time.

June? No. Went to the mall event in July, and the raid in August. The public is really receptive to Anon's message. They do mini-raids randomly...the one yesterday was WIN: http://www.anonymousdc.com/forums/index.php?topic=2979.msg50653
Also, speaking of Tom Clapp, looks like Anon has captured a pic:
