Summary

	"Matchstick" was the nickname of a clone pilot who served as the commander of the Republic's Shadow Squadron, flying under the call sign "Shadow Two." In 22 BBY, while Matchstick and Shadow Squadron were serving under the command of Jedi General Anakin Skywalker, Malevolence began attacking a number of Republic fleets across the galaxy. Following the Battle of Abregado, Shadow Squadron accompanied Skywalker and his Padawan, Ahsoka Tano, to the Bormus Testing Facility to retrieve several BTL-B Y-wing starfighters for an upcoming assault on the Malevolence. After acquiring the starfighters, Skywalker developed a plan to destroy the Malevolence with the newly acquired bombers by ambushing the warship near the Kaliida Nebula. After being briefed about their mission, Shadow Squadron - with Skywalker in the lead - took a dangerous shortcut through the nebula to intercept the Malevolence. Nebula Run During the journey, Matchstick's bomber was damaged after a large neebray manta - a winged vacuumbreather nesting in the nebula - grazed his fighter's port engine, although the pilot was able to continue on with his squadron. Attack Run Upon emerging from the nebula, Shadow Squadron engaged the Malevolence and the Vulture droid starfighters that it deployed. When the massive warship fired its ion pulse cannon on the squadron, Matchsticks' engines failed while attempting evasive maneuvers due to the damage inflicted by the neebray manta. Losing control of his ship, Matchstick collided with squadmate Tag's Y-wing, which killed both pilots. Read more...
