- "This is Echo Station Three-Eight. Unidentified object is in our scope. It's just over the ridge. We should have visual contact in about— What the—? Oh, no!"
- ―Station 3-8 trooper, upon sighting an Imperial probe droid
A trooper served with the Rebel Alliance as a soldier stationed at Echo Station 3-8 on the ice planet Hoth in 3 ABY. When an unidentified object, which turned out to be an Imperial Viper probe droid, was spotted on Hoth moving toward Station 3-8, this trooper contacted Echo Base and informed the headquarters that the outpost had sighted the object.[2] Before the soldier could identify the intruder, the probe droid destroyed Station 3-8, killing the trooper and cutting off the transmission.[1]

This unidentified Rebel trooper first appeared in the novelization of Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back through a single line of dialogue. The character also appeared, albeit with slightly different quotes, in Star Wars 39: The Empire Strikes Back: Beginning and The Empire Strikes Back Storybook. While the novel and storybook have the trooper contacting Echo Base, the Marvel adaptation has Echo Base contacting Station 3-8 first.
