Category:75th Shock Battalion

The 75th Shock Battalion was a division attached to the Rapid Response Reserve (R.R.R., 1st Reserve Division on official dispatches) during the Galactic War with the Sith Empire.

Formed in 3642 BBY, the 75th was the first battalion raised in the R.R.R. and thereafter became a model template for the other nine battalions. Distinguished by the navy blue markings, as well as the number "75" imprinted on their armor and helmets, the color scheme was meant to symbolize the troops' steadfast loyalty to Jedi Master Baritin Redbreak, a combat veteran who was well respected in the Republic Armed Forces for his leadership and combat skills.

The 75th's troops and officers were highly trained and undertook more than several critical missions throughout the war, being decorated and praised for their actions and courage on the battlefield. Considered by many to be one of the most elite units in the armed forces, membership into the battalion was considered to be a prestigious honor, as only the very best were accepted.
