Summary

	Jun Sato was a human male who commanded the Phoenix Cell, a resistance group that operated against the Galactic Empire in the years prior to the Battle of Yavin. He and his cell, which included a group of A-wing starfighters known as Phoenix Squadron, were affiliated with the larger rebel movement operated by Senator Bail Organa. At the recommendation of Senator Organa, Sato welcomed the Spectres into his fleet, and the two cells fought side by side in a number of engagements. Sato lost his command ship, Phoenix Home, after it was destroyed by the Sith Lord Darth Vader, after which Sato transferred his command to the CR90 corvette Liberator and later the Quasar Fire-class cruiser-carrier Phoenix Nest. Commander Sato and Captain Hera Syndulla continued leading the Phoenix Squadron in the period between 3 BBY and 2 BBY. During this time, Sato saw action in numerous missions and skirmishes against the Empire. Phoenix Squadron later established a base called Chopper Base on the planet Atollon. He reunited with his nephew Mart Mattin during the skirmish above Mykapo. After Phoenix Squadron joined the Alliance to Restore the Republic, Sato's forces joined forces with General Jan Dodonna's Massassi Group for a planned assault on Lothal. However, Grand Admiral Thrawn learned of their plans and attacked Atollon. Sato sacrificed his life during the Battle of Atollon in order to allow Ezra Bridger and Chopper to escape and seek help, killing Admiral Kassius Konstantine in the process. Read more...
