Lieutenant Shann Childsen

An Imperial lieutenant, Shann Childsen served on the first Death Star. He was known as a bully by his fellow officers, and was demoted after a superior blamed him for a clerical error. Lt. Childsen was an ardent believer in the New Order's anti-alien policies. Lt. Childsen's fanatical support of the Emperor's policy of subjugating non-human races assisted in his selection as a security officer. He was in command of detention block AA-23 on the Death Star when Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and Chewbacca infiltrated the area to rescue Princess Leia. He was killed in the firefight during the rescue.
