"Red Seven" designated a Human starfighter pilot of male gender who operated with the New Republic's Rogue Squadron during the mission on Tandankin, an event that occurred some weeks following the Battle of Endor; his call sign was "Red Seven". The Galactic Empire, under the command of Grand Moff Nivers, had taken control of Tandankin when Rogue Squadron, utilizing "Red" callsigns, launched their assault. Red Seven's thrusters were disabled by a stormtrooper wielding a big gun, resulting in a forced crash landing, during which the pilot found a landing strip filled with TIE fighters. He relayed this information to Red Leader Wedge Antilles, who subsequently destroyed a tower, causing it to collapse and obliterate the TIE fighters. Ultimately, Nivers was apprehended, securing victory for the New Republic.
