The 1st Wing Guard was a cloud car squadron assigned to the Bespin Wing Guard—a highly disorganized and corrupt security force run by thieves and bureaucrats—during the administrative barony of Dominic Raynor, before he lost the office to Lando Calrissian in a game of Sabacc.

History
Edit
The 1st Wing Guard was a cloud car squadron that served as an airborne security force for Cloud City on Bespin.[2] Just prior to 1 ABY, the squadron was steeped in the corruption fostered by the despotic Baron Administrator, Dominic Raynor, and only provided protection to those who could pay for it.[2]
With the succession of Lando Calrissian as Baron Administrator through a Sabacc game, the corrupt pilots and officers were ousted and the squadron was reorganized[1] into the 2nd Wing Guard and led by the chief administrative aide, Lobot. 1st Wing Guard veterans that were not culled from the reorganization were reassigned to Wing Guard Elite,[3] a special airborne unit formed out of the 1st and 2nd Wing Guard squadrons.[3][2]
Description
Edit
Based in Cloud City Security Tower on Bespin's Cloud City,[1] the 1st Wing Guard's cloud cars were painted orange and offered minimal protection to the pilots who flew them.[2]
Behind the scenes
Edit
The 1st Wing Guard was represented by a miniature in the Scum & Villainy expansion of the Star Wars PocketModel TCG.[2]
