We'll follow you, but we'll hang back until the coast is clear.|The squad leader to Kenobi|Star Wars: Obi-Wan}} A Human male squad leader was a pilot in the Naboo Royal Space Fighter Corps. He was active in 32 BBY and was captured by the Trade Federation during the Invasion of Naboo. The Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi rescued the squad leader and five other pilots before the final stages of the invasion. Kenobi infiltrated the Royal Observatory where the pilots were held and freed them. The squad leader agreed to accompany Kenobi back the the Naboo Resistance, but stated that the pilots would let Kenobi preceed them. Kenobi led the pilots back to the Royal Palace, stopping them several times to engage Federation forces before joining back up with the resistance.

Behind the scenes
"Squad Leader" was voiced by Nick Jameson in the 2001 [video game]] Star Wars: Obi-Wan. The mission in which this character appears contradicts the chronology of Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace. It is unclear if this individual is supposed to represent Ric Olié, the leader of Bravo Squadron who accompanied the Queen throughout the movie.
