Rogue Leader
Canon Legends version → Linked from 21 articles
Rogue Leader was the callsign attributed to the lead pilot of the Rebel Alliance's starfighter squadron, Rogue Squadron. In honor of Jyn Erso and her crew's sacrifice at Scarif, Luke Skywalker ordered for the specific "Rogue One" designation that they used to be retired. This led to Luke flying instead as Rogue Leader. He used the callsign in the defense of Hoth's Echo Base when it was besieged by the Empire.
Following the Battle of Hoth, Commander Wedge Antilles was made Rogue Leader as Skywalker took a leave of absence.
