Tong was a supposed[2] human[1] TIE fighter pilot in the Galactic Empire's 204th Imperial Fighter Wing. When Lieutenant Yrica Quell defected from the Empire on the planet Nacronis[2] in 4 ABY,[3] she attempted to cover up her role in a genocide on the planet, claiming in a falsified report to the New Republic IT-O Interrogation Unit IT-O that Tong, along with fellow TIE pilots Major Soran Keize and Shana, had pursued her. Quell additionally claimed that having seen Tong's flight statistics, she felt that she was even-matched. In the false story, Quell caused Tong and Shana to be caught in Nacronis's siltstorms and crash into each other as they decelerated.[2]

Tong was mentioned in the 2019 novel Alphabet Squadron, the first volume of the Star Wars: Alphabet Squadron trilogy written by Alexander Freed.[2]
