BiographyEdit

"Computer's locked. Getting a signal... The guns. They've stopped."

―Tiree^[src]

Vander was fond of the youth, believing he would become one of the greatest pilots in the Rebellion, and thus placed Tiree one point over the veteran 'Pops'. He was well noted for participating in a raid on Corellia, where he helped save engineers who proved invaluable to the Rebellion. Later on in the Galactic Civil War, during one of the Rebels' trench runs on the Death Star, Tiree's Y-wing was shot at by Darth Vader and the engines were hit, causing some of the electrical wiring to electrocute him, killing him before his Y-wing exploded.

Garven Dreis apparently wanted him in Red Squadron due to his navigation skills.
