During the time of the Galactic Civil War, the Galactic Empire built a military outpost on the world called Flankers situated within the Fakir sector. Because the Flankers system's [star](/article/star/legends] was about to go nova, the outpost was left empty not long after the Battle of Yavin.
A damaged Imperial reconnaissance ship, carrying an Alliance to Restore the Republic captive, specifically General Lens Reekeene, showed up at the outpost. The ship's crew, discovering the base was abandoned, requested assistance. Green squad, a team belonging to Reekeene's Roughnecks, managed to get inside the base and save Reekeene before the star detonated.
