Pathfinders

"That's us. First in, last out, and broken furniture in between."

- Tuck

The Pathfinders, also known as SpecForce Pathfinders were a special forces unit in the service of the Alliance to Restore the Republic. General Han Solo used the Pathfinders as his strike team during the Battle of Endor, as well as a raid at the Wretch of Tayron. The Pathfinders were commandos who were trained in infiltration. The group used guerilla tactics to infiltrate areas they were trying to capture or liberate.

Recruitment and training
Although members of the SpecForces hailed from a vast array of planets, many of them came from Outer Rim worlds subjugated by the Empire. Contrary to their Imperial foes, the Rebel commandos did not benefit from Academy training. Nevertheless, they were trained by former Imperials like their leader, General Crix Madine.
