Verd


Verd held the commander military rank within the Grand Army of the Republic and fought in the Clone Wars. In 19 BBY, near the end of the conflict, Jedi General Plo Koon commanded the Republic's 442nd Siege Battalion in an assault against the Separatist Alliance's armies located on the Neimoidian colony of Cato Neimoidia.

During this engagement, Commander Verd gave orders to the 442nd's companies, instructing them to lay siege to the Separatist base situated at an arena inside the city of Tarko-se. This siege involved utilizing the battalion's AT-RT walkers together with Infantry Support Platforms. With aerial assistance provided by Squad Seven along with Plo Koon himself, the Republic's military ultimately succeeded in wresting control of the planet away from the Separatist Alliance's General Baik Raaorn and his troops.
