The 3rd Wing Guard was a cloud car squadron assigned to the Bespin Wing Guard—a security force working to protect the Imperial garrisoned Cloud City.
History
When Darth Vader brought an occupation force to Cloud City,[3] resistance against Imperial forces resulted in the reorganization of the 2nd Wing Guard squadron into a security force not obviously aligned with the Alliance to Restore the Republic.[2]
The 3rd Wing Guard served Cloud City's Bespin Wing Guard after Calrissian's departure, protecting it even under and in spite of the occupation of an Imperial garrison.[1]
Description
Based in Cloud City Security Tower on Bespin's Cloud City,[1] the 3rd Wing Guard's cloud cars were painted orange and offered minimal protection to the pilots who flew them.[2]
Behind the scenes
The 3rd Wing Guard was represented by a miniature in the Scum & Villainy expansion of the Star Wars PocketModel TCG.[2]
