Category:557th Cavalry Division

The 557th Cavalry Division was a unit comprised of mounted troops, placed under the command of clone commander Nix. Identified by the canary yellow markings, the unit was used on special assignments in the course of the Clone Wars. In 22 BBY, the first year of the war, Supreme Chancellor Palpatine authorized Bluurgs to be used as calvalry, but the numbers would be strictly limited from a platoon to a legion. To avoid losing a large portion of calvalry, the 557th was only used for special assignments, therefore meaning that the division was often in reserve on Dantooine.
