- "Checkers, can I ask you how you got here? I mean, how did you get assigned to Torrent Company?"
"I requested the transfer. Used to be in Laser Company, under General Fisto." - ―Jedi Padawan Ahsoka Tano and Checkers
Laser Company was a clone trooper company of the Grand Army of the Republic that served under Jedi General Kit Fisto during the Clone Wars.[1] By 21 BBY,[2] the unit was severely depleted in an encounter on[1] the planet[3] Kessel, with trooper Checkers being the only clone survivor. Although the unit was replenished with new troops, Checkers chose to be transferred to Torrent Company to serve under Clone Captain CT-7567.[1]
