Massacre near Teralov
"They brought fighters. Green Three, Green Four, stay with the transport. All others follow me."

- Green Leader

During the early days of the rebellion against the Galactic Empire, Green Squadron A-wings were tasked with escorting a convoy of rebel starships to provide supplies to the people of Teralov when they were attacked by a squadron of TIE interceptors. On this occasion, all rebel ships were destroyed by the Imperial forces.

Battle of Endor
"Green Four, take Seven and Three, screen Gold Leader's attack run!"

- Green Leader, at Endor

During the Battle of Endor, Green Squadron was entirely composed of A-wing starfighters and was led by Commander Arvel Crynyd. During the battle, Green Squadron assembled to attack the Super Star Destroyer Executor. Green Six (Kokely) was destroyed by one of the many TIE fighters defending the flagship. When Crynyd sacrificed himself to destroy the Executor, command of the squadron fell to acting commander Lieutenant L'ulo L'ampar. After the deactivation of the shield generator on the forest moon below, Green Squadron, along with Yellow Squadron, were tasked with screening Gold Leader (General Lando Calrissian)'s attack run on the surface of the battlestation, and subsequently watching for starships that were evacuating from the second Death Star. One such craft was a Lambda-class T-4a shuttle, flown by Commander Luke Skywalker and accompanied by his late father, Anakin Skywalker. Green Four (Shara Bey) intercepted Skywalker almost immediately, but Skywalker identified himself as a friendly as Bey was preparing to lock on to the Imperial ship.

Battle of Cawa City
"Stay tight! Y-wings on approach!"

- L'ulo L'ampar, at Cawa City

Seventeen days after the Battle of Endor, Green Squadron, now under the command of Lieutenant L'ulo L'ampar, notably took part in a battle to liberate Cawa City on Sterdic IV for the Rebel Alliance from the Galactic Empire to gain a Rebel victory successfully with the help of Feral Group. However, while the battle was another major victory for the Alliance, it resulted in heavy Starfighter losses for both Rebel squadrons by the end of the confrontation.
