Unidentified clone commando squad (Ord Mantell)

A squad of clone commandos was an elite special forces unit within the Grand Army of the Republic that operated during the Clone Wars. Comprised of four clones of the Mandalorian bounty hunter Jango Fett, the commandos took part in a mission to the planet Ord Mantell where they were to recover a diplomatic package that had been bound for Supreme Chancellor Palpatine from a gang of Trandoshan bounty hunters who had stolen it with the intent to sell the item to the Confederacy. During the course of the mission, one of the squad's soldiers was shot and killed by one of the Trandoshans, while the other three fell in an explosion when attacked with a number of thermal detonators. Their fellow commandos in another squad were able to complete the mission and recover the package, but they too suffered heavy casualties in doing so.
