"Bombs charged!"

―Edon Kappehl reporting soon before his death

Edon Kappehl was a fair-skinned human male who served in the Resistance during their war against the First Order. During the evacuation of the Resistance base on the planet D'Qar in the year 34 ABY, he flew as the bombardier for Crimson Hailstorm, a MG-100 StarFortress SF-17 bomber serving in Crimson Squadron. He was killed above D'Qar along with the rest of the squadron during an attack run on the First Order's Mandator IV-class Siege Dreadnought Fulminatrix, when a burning enemy fighter crashed into the bomber he was on, starting a chain reaction and destroying the bomber.
