117th Squadron

The 117th Squadron was an elite squad of clone troopers. They were decked out in red and white phase I armour. There attire changed around two years later.

Early In The War
They were deployed on Geonosis at the start of the Clone Wars. The 117th Squadron saved Jedi Master Ken-ma Po-co from captivity on Geonosis. Ken-ma stayed with the 117th Squad for the rest of the Clone Wars, feeling he owed at debt to them.
