Sterns Yennich, who was both a GeNode and a private, also briefly served as a stormtrooper. During the initial phase of the Imperial occupation of Kashyyyk, he was sent to the planet's surface as part of Janzor's platoon. Yennich, alongside Wayson Dower and Milo Strander, were the only stormtroopers that lived through the conflict, and they escaped into a tree. In that location, a giant spider impaled him and pulled him beneath the earth. He became the final death of the battle.
