A clone trooper captain of the Grand Army of the Republic in Phase I clone trooper armor.

During the Clone Wars, the clone trooper captain was a specialized clone trooper breed which was bred on Kamino as battlefield officers and special mission operatives.

Role

At the start of the war, clone trooper captains were recognized by the red markings on their helmets and torso armor, but as the war progressed, clone trooper armor became more customized and red marking not longer signified the rank of captain. Clone trooper captains were assigned to lead companies of 144 regular clone troopers. They were equipped with a DC-15A blaster rifle and a line of thermal detonators. Trained in both squad- and company-level tactics, as well as to handle the 74-Z speeder bike, clone trooper captains were diverse leaders.

History

They first appeared during the Battle of Geonosis. The officers commanded at Forward Command Centers and position of great visual range. A handful of captains used speeder bikes to destroy the huge and clumsy Confederacy OG-9 homing spider droids, throwing pulse grenades as they raced across the battlefield. Also, a branch of jet trooper, aerial clone trooper captains participated in many prominent battles, such as Mace Windu's defense of Dantooine. A notable clone captain was Rex who fought in the front lines with the grit of an Advanced Recon Commando. He participated in many campaigns.
