Company Cresh, an infantry company within the Galactic Empire's Stormtrooper Corps, underwent a period of training away from active combat. During this time, Company Cresh, along with other stormtrooper formations, was integrated into Red Battalion. This battalion was a training organization for Imperial cadets, and the stormtroopers participated in several days of training simulations on the planet Sirpar. The purpose was for the young cadets to lead the experienced stormtrooper units, highlighting the importance of proper training and discipline. Anya Razar, an Imperial cadet, held the position of commanding officer for the company. Simultaneously, Zare Leonis was assigned as a lieutenant and assumed the role of platoon leader for Cresh-3 Platoon, which was a subordinate unit within Company Cresh.
