Kes Dameron

Kes Dameron was a human male soldier who served as a sergeant in the Alliance to Restore the Republic during the Galactic Civil War. He was married to Shara Bey, a Rebel pilot, with whom he had a son named Poe. They both fought against the Galactic Empire in the Battle of Endor, during which Dameron was part of the Pathfinders, a special forces strike team led by General Han Solo that destroyed the Death Star II's deflector shield generator. After the Empire's defeat during the battle, both Dameron and Bey participated in an assault on an outpost manned by Imperial holdouts on Endor.

Dameron fought with the Pathfinders for the next several weeks, including the raid at the Wretch of Tayron. After fighting their way into an Imperial Security Bureau black site, the team was able to gain data needed to uncover and stop Operation: Cinder, an Imperial operation designed to destroy numerous worlds to avenge the death of the Emperor, Darth Sidious, who had been killed during the Battle of Endor. Three months after the raid, Dameron and Bey both left Rebel service and began a new life together. At their new home on Yavin 4, they planted a fragment of a Force-sensitive tree, one that had once dwelled at the heart of the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, after it had been gifted to Bey by Commander Luke Skywalker.
