"I didn't know Yeager was at the Battle of Jakku."
―Kazuda Xiono, after discovering a photo of Yeager and his squadron[2]

The human pilot Jarek Yeager was part of an X-wing squadron that served the New Republic Starfighter Corps. The squadron numbered at least four individuals, including Yeager, another human, and a purple-skinned Twi'lek. Members of the squadron wore orange flight suits and K-22995 light flight helmets. The squadron participated in the Battle of Jakku[2] in 5 ABY.[3] After the end of Yeager's military service, he lived on the planet Castilon, where he operated a repair station. Yeager kept a holographic photo of his squadron on the[2] planet[4] Jakku in front of a destroyed Imperial Star Destroyer, celebrating the New Republic victory. When sneaking into Yeager's private hangar at his station[2] in 34 ABY,[5] the Resistance operative Kazuda Xiono, who was working under Yeager as part of his mission, discovered the photo of Yeager's squadron. Xiono was surprised by the photo, having never known about Yeager's service with the New Republic.[2]

Behind the scenes

Yeager's squadron was first pictured in "Fuel for the Fire," the fourth episode of the first season of the animated television series Star Wars Resistance.[2] The episode aired on October 21, 2018.[6]
