This unidentified clone trooper served in the 501st Legion during the Clone Wars. He was part of a battalion sent late in 20 BBY[4] to capture the planet Umbara after it seceded from the Galactic Republic. He was awakened by an Umbaran droid during a counterattack.[3]
History[]
In the latter months of 20 BBY, the planet of Umbara left the Galactic Repulic in favor of the Confederacy of Independent Systems. As a result, the Republic sent an invasion force to retake it. The 501st Legion, led by Jedi General Anakin Skywalker, was sent to destroy enemy reinforcements in the north, while the rest of the assault troops would attack the capital from the south.[3]
The 501st began their attack, and the troopers ran into battle. With All Terrain Recon Transports as cavalry, the troopers stormed the Umbaran defenses and soon crushed them. After the destruction of the Umbaran tanks, the troops moved to a large ridge northwest of their position.[3]
Jedi General Skywalker used the ridge as a staging area and the 501st forces regrouped. As the clones waited and watched General Kenobi's battalion fighting, this trooper rested within a trench. However, a small Umbaran droid, a millicreep, snuck up on the trooper next to him and struck him in the neck, electrocuting him. Immediately after, this trooper scrambled to the other side of the trench, and began shooting at the droid with Hardcase, Tup, and several others.[3]
Armor and Equipment[]
This trooper wore Phase II armor with blue stripes, the color of the 501st Legion. He carried a DC-15S blaster carbine.[3]
