41st Scout Battalion

The 41st Scout Battalion was an elite infantry and armor battalion within the 41st Elite Corps of the Grand Army of the Republic that participated in the Clone Wars, a pan-galactic conflict between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems. In 19 BBY, it was decided that Jedi General Yoda would lead a battalion to support the Wookiees on Kashyyyk. The 41st Scout Battalion was then dispatched to the planet, where they participated in the Battle of Kashyyyk and later the implementation of Order 66, as part of the Great Jedi Purge.

The battalion was characterized by the green camouflage Phase II ARF armor they wore, and utilized All Terrain Attack Pods, All Terrain Reconnaissance Transports, BARC speeders, HAVw A6 Juggernauts, and Infantry Support Platforms. The battalion was under the command of Jedi General Yoda, as well as Jedi General Luminara Unduli and Clone Commander Gree.
