Bacara

Bacara, also known as CC-1138, was a clone marshal commander who served in the Grand Army of the Republic. Cloned on the planet Kamino, Bacara received initial training from the former Concord Dawn Journeyman Protector Cort Davin, who taught the young clone the ideals and traditions of the Journeyman Protectors. At some point, the Clone Commander learned space and land-based fighting. Bacara was given command of the Galactic Marines, which was attached to the 4th Sector Army. Following the battle that triggered the Clone Wars in 22 BBY, Bacara fought alongside several Jedi, including Jedi Master and Council member Ki-Adi-Mundi. During the war, Bacara and the Galactic Marines earned a reputation as one of the most feared Republic units. Taking a break from the battlefield, Bacara joined ARC trooper Alpha-17's ARC program and graduated early.

In 21 BBY, the Clone Commander joined Jedi General Mundi on the snow-covered world Mygeeto to fight against Confederate troops. As a result of the Mygeeto campaign, the relationship between the Republic and InterGalactic Banking Clan grew worse, and Bacara and Mundi found themselves locked in a three year conflict. Bacara did, however, leave Mygeeto for sometime and fought in a brutal Outer Rim Sieges battle on New Bornalex. With Mundi and the Marines, Bacara returned to Mygeeto in the final year of the war. On Mygeeto, the 501st Legion, with the help of Bacara's Marines, executed Hammertong, a top secret project given to the 501st by Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. As the fighting intensified, Palpatine ordered Bacara to execute Order 66—a contingency order which labeled Jedi as traitors and enemies of the Republic—via comlink. Complying with the order, which also called for the extermination of Jedi, Bacara and the Marines fired on Mundi and killed the Jedi Master.
