Jeremoch Colton was the pilot of the Tantive IV during the Clone Wars, and had a long record of service in the Royal House of Alderaan. He wore the same uniform as the rest of the Tantive IV crew, and he had blond hair and blue eyes. He is not to be confused with Captain Raymus Antilles, who had overall command of Tantive IV and considered Colton to be his mentor.[1]

[edit] Biography
Colton piloted Tantive IV during its return to Coruscant after Bail Organa's efforts to rescue Yoda and Obi-Wan Kenobi following the execution of Order 66.
He continued to pilot the ship after the end of the Clone Wars, and having learned the tricks of the trade, planned to retire from active service to teach at the University of Alderaan.[1]
[edit] Behind the scenes
Jeremoch Colton was played by Jeremy Bulloch, the same actor who portrayed Boba Fett in the original trilogy. "Jeremoch" is an obvious portmanteau of his name.
The name Colton Antilles is given for Raymus Antilles in some sources, leading some fans to believe that the Captain Antilles in A New Hope is a separate character named Colton Antilles, possibly named after the Captain Colton in Revenge of the Sith. However, Leland Chee has confirmed that both Captain Antilleses are meant to be the same person.[2][3]
