CC-1138, nicknamed "Bacara," was
a clone trooper commander who
served in the Grand Army of the
Republic. Cloned on the planet
Kamino, Bacara received initial
training from the former Concord
Dawn Journeyman Protector Cort
Davin, who taught the young clone
the ideals and traditions of the
Journeyman Protectors. At some
point, the Clone Commander
learned space and land-based
fighting. Bacara was given
command of the Galactic Marines,
which was attached to the 4th
Sector Army. Following the battle
that triggered the Clone Wars in 22
BBY, Bacara fought alongside
several Jedi, including Jedi Master
and Council member Ki-Adi-Mundi.
During the war, Bacara and the
Galactic Marines earned a reputation
as one of the most feared Republic
units. Taking a break from the
battlefield, Bacara joined ARC
trooper Alpha-17's ARC trooper
program and graduated early.
In 21 BBY, the Clone Commander
joined Jedi General Mundi on the
snow-covered world Mygeeto to
fight against Confederate troops. As
a result of the Mygeeto campaign,
the relationship between the
Republic and InterGalactic Banking
Clan grew worse, and Bacara and
Mundi found themselves locked in a
three year conflict. Bacara did,
however, leave Mygeeto for
sometime and fought in a brutal
Outer Rim Sieges battle on New
Bornalex. With Mundi and the
Marines, Bacara returned to
Mygeeto in the final year of the war.
On Mygeeto, the 501st Legion, with
the help of Bacara's Marines,
executed Hammertong, a top secret
project given to the 501st by
Supreme Chancellor Palpatine. As
the fighting intensified, Palpatine
ordered Bacara to execute Order 66
—a contingency order which labeled
Jedi as traitors and enemies of the
Republic—via comlink. Complying
with the order, which also called for
the extermination of Jedi, Bacara
and the Marines fired on Mundi and
killed the Jedi Master.
