Bombing of Callos

The Bombing of Callos was fought early on in the history of the Galactic Empire.

The battle
In 3 BBY, Imperial forces under the command of Darth Vader attacked Callos, after discovering evidence that the Callosians were developing a new offensive technology intended to oppose those who were spreading the New Order. Black Squadron, Vader's personal fighter wing, was assigned to bomb the Callosian defences. Once the military objective had been neutralised, Captain Juno Eclipse was ordered to continue the assault. Upon questioning this directive, Vader changed the mission to the targeting of a single reactor unit, the Callos planetary reactor. Juno Eclipse followed these orders and proved her loyalty to Vader. Despite obvious misgivings about obeying her orders, she continued her assault on the already beaten and defenseless planet, leading to the genocide and, for all intents and purposes, destruction of the planet.

Aftermath
Despide demonstrating her loyalty, Vader judged that Eclipse lacked the ruthlessness that he deemed vital to the command of Black Squadron, and Juno was reassigned to pilot the Rogue Shadow. She later remarked that the planet Felucia reminded her of Callos.
