Ekelarc Yong

Ekelarc Yong was a human male who served as a lieutenant and starfighter pilot in the Alliance to Restore the Republic during the Galactic Civil War. He flew a BTL-A4 Y-wing assault starfighter/bomber under the callsign Gray Three as a member of Gray Squadron and participated in the Battle of Endor, in which the Alliance aimed to destroy the Galactic Empire's Death Star II superweapon.

After realizing they had fallen into a trap, the rebels engaged with an Imperial fleet at point blank range in order to avoid being targeted by the Death Star's superlaser. During the fighting, Yong's bomber was shot down by two TIE/ln space superiority starfighters, although the pilot managed to crash the vehicle into the bridge of an Imperial Star Destroyer as he died.
