Biography[]
"Salvo" was but one of thousands of individuals cloned from the genetic template of bounty hunter Jango Fett on the watery world of Kamino in the year 32 BBY. Genetically bred for military service, he held the rank of commander and served among the 32nd Air Combat Wing during the Clone Wars. Salvo was present during a skirmish on the Separatist world of Paarin Minor where the 32nd repelled Separatist forces by luring them into a thick cloud bank, minimalizing their visibility. From there, the clone troopers were able to destroy their adversaries' aerial assault ships.
In 19 BBY, Salvo and the 32nd fought during the Battle of Murkhana. As part of the aerial support team, he concentrated his efforts towards sabotaging the deflector shield stations that were protecting a Separatist landing platform between Murkhana City and Murkhana Bay.
