Keyser Salm

Keyser Salm was a male pilot in the Alliance to Restore the Republic who was the younger brother to Horton Salm, who also served as a pilot. After the evacuation of Hoth in 3 ABY, Keyser Salm was recruited by Commander Wedge Antilles and Lieutenant Wes Janson into the reformed Red Squadron. Janson had previously flown recon with Salm, and Janson considered him to be green, but teachable. He was assigned the callsign Red Two and flew a T-65B X-wing starfighter as Wes Janson's wingman in an attack on nearby pirates that threatened the safety of their rendezvous point. The battle got three other members of the Red Squadron killed, but they were successful in driving away the pirates. In 4 ABY, he participated at the Battle of Endor and flew a Y-wing under the callsign Red Two. He successfully shot down at least three TIE Interceptors, the first of which was responsible for the death of fellow squadron member Sila Kott (Red Three).
