The Galactic Alliance Guard (GAG) was the secret police of the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances during the Second Galactic Civil War. The GAG was founded by Chief of State Cal Omas and placed under the command of Colonel Jacen Solo![](MyCollection_Unit_Solo, Jacen (Darth Caedus).jpg) | Jacen Solo(Human)CharacterMajor Characters | , a Knight of the New Jedi Order![](MyCollection_Unit_New Jedi Order.jpg) | New Jedi OrderOrganizationNew Republic | , as a result of the Corellian![](MyCollection_Unit_Corellia.jpg) | CorelliaPlanet | terrorist attacks and riots on the galactic capital world of Coruscant![](MyCollection_Unit_Coruscant.jpg) | CoruscantPlanet | in 40 ABY. As the war against the Confederation progressed, the GAG undertook offworld missions across the galaxy and became essential in Colonel Solo's rise to power as the Sith Lord Darth Caedus.Specializing in intelligence gathering, special operations and counter-terrorism, members of the GAG were recruited from the Coruscant Security Force![](MyCollection_Unit_Coruscant Security Force.jpg) | Coruscant Security ForceOrganizationPlanetary and Sector | , the Galactic Alliance Intelligence Service, and the Galactic Alliance Defense Force. The GAG possessed a myriad of assets to suppress acts of sedition and treason on Coruscant, such as the use of droid brains to monitor the HoloNet and the deployment of combat drones against insurgents. The organization included a wing of elite black-armored soldiers, known as GAG troopers, for combat operations. One its sub-units, the 967 Commando, served under the direct command of Colonel Solo and his informal Jedi apprentice, Lieutenant Ben Skywalker![](MyCollection_Unit_Skywalker, Ben.jpg) | Ben Skywalker(Human)CharacterMajor Characters | , during the GAG's early raids against the Corellian sectors in Galactic City. The GAG later acquired its own warship, the Anakin Solo![](MyCollection_Unit_Anakin Solo (Imperial II-class Star Destroyer).jpg) | Anakin Solo(Imperial-class Star Destroyer)StarshipNamed Starships | - a modified Imperial II-class Star Destroyer![](MyCollection_Unit_Imperial-class Star Destroyer.jpg) | Imperial-class Star DestroyerStarshipStarship Models | , it would serve as the GAG's mobile headquarters.From the time of their inception, the GAG was a source of controversy within the Galactic Alliance as well as the Jedi High Council. It was disapproved of by members of Grand Master Luke Skywalker![](MyCollection_Unit_Skywalker, Luke.jpg) | Luke Skywalker(Human)CharacterMajor Characters | 's family for its similarities to the Galactic Empire. The GAG became increasingly loyal to its commanding officer, Colonel Solo, who used the Guard and its resources to further his agenda. As a result, Five World Prime Minister Dur Gejjen was assassinated by GAG operatives on Vulpter, while GAG troopers arrested Cal Omas in a coup that put Solo and Admiral Cha Niathal in power as co-rulers of the Alliance. But as Jacen Solo embraced the dark side of the Force, renouncing the Jedi path to become the Dark Lord of the Sith Darth Caedus, the GAG's list of enemies grew to include Fondorians, Mandalorians![](MyCollection_Unit_Mandalorian.jpg) | MandalorianOrganizationMandalorians | , the Hapes Consortium![](MyCollection_Unit_Hapes Consortium.jpg) | Hapes ConsortiumOrganizationPlanetary and Sector | , and even the Jedi Order.
