Massacre on Kashyyyk

"I trained as a fighter pilot once, you know. It was after the Empire’s massacre on Kashyyyk. When I knew diplomacy was dead, I was ready to fight, just like you are now."

- Mon Mothma, to Leia Organa

A massacre was committed on Kashyyyk by the Galactic Empire at some point before the Battle of Endor. That event almost convinced Mon mothma, Chancellor of the Alliance to Restore the Republic, that diplomatic action had become completely useless, and that she should start training as a fighter pilot.
