"Kickback" was the nickname of a clone trooper pilot who served in the Galactic Republic's Navy. Kickback served under the call sign of "Blue Four" in Blue Squadron, a Republic starfighter unit led by Jedi Commander Ashoka Tano. Blue Squadron participated in the Battle of Ryloth circa 22 BBY, to destroy Confederate Captain Mar Tuuk's blockade over the Twi'lek planet of Ryloth. During the battle, Kickback accompanied fellow clone pilots Axe, Slammer, Tucker, and Group Two leader Swoop, while the squadron made their way toward Tuuk's command ship. However, Confederate Vulture droids attacked Blue Squadron, causing heavy damage to several of their fighters. Admiral Yularen and Jedi General Anakin Skywalker ordered Tano and her men to retreat; however, several of Blue Squadron's fighters have been shot down in the ongoing blaster fire, crippling Tano's squadron. Tano, and two out of the ten fighters that accompanied her, safely boarded the Venator-class Star Destroyer, Resolute, before it jumped to hyperspace. Read more... |
