Triton squad Leader was a clone Commando who led Triton Squadron during the Battle of Kashyyyk in 19 BBY. He, alongside a ARC Trooper, were tasked with hunting down a group of Wookiees that helped Grand Jedi Master Yoda escape clone forces. Triton Leader managed to track the wookiees and their leaders, Chewbacca and Tarfful, to the Shadowlands, but this proved to only be a trap and the Wookiees ended up killing off all the squad members of Triton Squadron, and Leader was killed with them. He would later be replaced a year later, when the squad was recreated by the Galactic Empire.

The commando and unit served on Garqui, assisting civilians, alongside Aiwha Squad.[4][5]
The commando and his unit were deployed to the planet of Kashyyyk, after the Battle to clean up and capture or kill any Wookiees they encounter. Chewbacca, Tarfful and another Wookiee attacked a detachment of Triton Squad, killing the ARC leader and a few others.[4]
The three troopers that initially followed him down were killed instantly. Another trooper was attacked by a local creature, killing him instantly. The commando and five other troopers escaped, however falling into a nest of another creature, which devoured a trooper. They killed the creature, which landed on a trooper. The three other troopers were killed by Chewbacca, which then led to the death of the commando by Chewbacca.[4]
