Unidentified Imperial commander (Jekara system)

A human Imperial officer served as a commander in the Galactic Empire aboard the Super Star Destroyer Executor, the flagship of the Sith Lord Darth Vader. In 3 ABY, the commander was present aboard the Executor when it traveled to the Jekara system where Vader sought to claim the carbonite-frozen body of Han Solo from an auction hosted by Crimson Dawn. When the rebel Luke Skywalker arrived at Jekara aboard his X-wing starfighter, the commander informed Admiral Firmus Piett of the ship's arrival. Piett then had a fighter wing deployed to chase Skywalker. After Skywalker drew the fighter wing into conflict with the Son-tuul Pride, Piett had the commander fire the Executor on the Son-tuul Pride's War Cruiser, the Dark Syndicate, to teach a lesson to the criminal syndicates also present at Jekara.
