Stormtrooper Commando

The Stormtrooper Commandos were an advanced group of specially trained Troopers. Each trooper spent 6+ years of training and Captains usually had 10+ years of experience. At the height of the Empire there was around 15,500 of these skilled soldiers. But during the waning years of the empire from 0 BBY onward their numbers were down considerably and by the time of the Battle of Endor there was less than 500.
