- "Are we blind? Deploy the garrison! Move!"
- ―Imperial Director Orson Callan Krennic
Stormtroopers of the Scarif garrison
A garrison was a military term for a collection of soldiers stationed at a specific location. During the Clone Wars, the Confederacy of Independent Systems invaded the planet Scipio with a full garrison of troops, which overwhelmed and massacred Clone Commander "Thorn" and his garrison who were part of the Coruscant Guard's Diplomatic service.[2]
The Galactic Empire had a garrison of stormtroopers stationed at the Citadel Tower on the planet Scarif, which was deployed during the Battle of Scarif.[1]
When Lando Calrissian protested the conditions that Darth Vader was imposing upon him, Vader responded by threatening to leave a garrison at Cloud City. The Imperials did take over Cloud City[3] and left a garrison behind.[4]
