CC-4321

"(text of the quote)"

 was a clone of legendary Mandalorian warrior and bounty hunter Jango Fett, part of a massive clone army created for the Galactic Republic in the cloning facilities of Kamino. Like all clones in the army, his aging process was sped up and he was bred for a certain rank in the army, his being Commander. He was programmed to be loyal to the Republic, and above all it's leader, Chancellor Palpatine. He served during the Clone Wars.

Early life
CC-4321 was bred for the rank of Commander in the Grand Army of the Republic. By the time he had reached adulthood, even with his accelerated aging, he had already been trained to be a perfect leader and soldier by Jango Fett and other skilled mercenaries that were hired to train the clone Commanders.

Career
During the first battle of the Clone Wars, the clone army was deployed to Geonosis to combat Separatist battle droids and destroy the factories where they are built. This was the first time any of them had seen real combat. CC-4321 was tasked with leading his unit into one of the battle droid factories and destroying the equipment by planting charges and detonating them. This was where he earned the nickname "Countdown", and also because of his clone designation.
