- ↑ Although The Essential Atlas places the Battle of Sarrish during the Outer Rim Sieges of 20 BBY to 19 BBY, it is assumed to take place specifically in 20 BBY because it precedes the events of "Missing in Action," which takes place in 20 BBY according to The Official Star Wars Fact File Part 58 DSQ 1-2: D-Squad. As Eight-eight-six-seven died during the Battle of Sarrish, it can be concluded that he died in 20 BBY.
