History[edit | edit source]
- "Execute Order 66."
"It will be done, my Lord." - ―Palpatine, to Jai'galaar.
One of the first divisions commissioned, the 127th first saw action at the Battle of Geonosis and participated throughout the Clone Wars. It was led by Commander Jai'galaar during the Battle of Geonosis. Commander Jai'galaar was later demoted to Captain for his actions during the disastrous Retreat at Katraasii. However, Jedi General Plo Koon nominated Captain Jag as a test pilot for the new Aggressive ReConnaissance-170 starfighter.[1]
During the Battle of Cato Neimoidia, the 127th was equipped with ARC-170 starfighters. After execution of Order 66, Captain Jag and CT-57/11-9048 eliminated Jedi Master Plo Koon.[2]
