He often served alongside Anakin Skywalker and Ahsoka Tano. When people think of clone troopers, Captain Rex often comes to mind first. To honor their service, let’s look back at some of the clone troopers we got to know in The Clone Wars. They were brave and selfless, especially so when you consider they didn’t really have a choice about heading into battle. But before Sheev Palpatine’s Order 66 programming kicked in, the clone troopers stood by the Jedi and became their friends. A kind of strength the Separatists couldn’t duplicate with their metal soldiers.Īfter Order 66, the clones perished and were eventually replaced by stormtroopers that the Empire recruited from around the galaxy. The clones all possessed the same genetic coding, but each one was unique. The clones didn’t make up a mindless force like the Separatist’s battle droids though. We met the clones who were grown and developed through an accelerated aging process on Kamino in Attack of the Clones and saw them go to battle with the Jedi.
Star Wars: The Clone Wars breathed life into the Grand Army of the Republic.
