The Heurkea operation took place on the planet Dac during the Galactic Civil War. In 1 BBY, a small Rebel team, consisting of former Senator Bail Organa, Captain Juno Eclipse, and the holodroid PROXY, infiltrated the Imperial-occupied world of Dac. Their objective was to add the strength and resources of the Mon Calamari Resistance to the Rebel Alliance, which was desperately in need of greater manpower and starships if it was to ever truly threaten the Galactic Empire's hold over the galaxy.
In addition to recruiting the Mon Calamari and even the Quarren species to the ranks of the Alliance, Organa and his team traveled to Dac in order to convince Captain Gial Ackbar, a runaway slave and leader of the Resistance, to join the Alliance Fleet as a commissioned officer. The official in charge of overseeing the occupation of Dac was Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin, one of Galactic Emperor Palpatine's closest confidants and the former master of Ackbar.
