Legend

most often referred to simply as Jag, this clone commander was officially designated CT-55/11-9009, making him part of the noted CT-5 batch of clones. Jag proved early in his career that he was an exceptional pilot, but he was flash-trained as a leader. Jag first saw action during the Battle of Geonosis, where he served as a commander of the 127th Gunship Wing. Although he was later demoted to Captain for his failure during the Retreat at Katraasii, Jag was among the pilots chosen by Jedi Master Plo Koon to serve as a test pilot on the new ARC-170 fighter. Jag remained attached to Plo Koon's forces, and was the Jedi Master's wingman during the struggle for control of Cato Neimoidia. This put him in perfect position when the command to execute Order 66 was issued. Captain Jag simply placed his fighter behind Plo Koon's and fired on the Jedi fight, causing it to crash into the side of a building and explode.
