30th Battalion

The 30th Assault Legion was an elite force of clone troopers who specialized in armored assaults and invasions.It was under the command of Clone Commander Trigg, but was often led by Jedi Generals Callista Bright and Jacius Railus. Their unique skill set and unparalled strength often found them at the front of the bloodiest battles of the Clone Wars. As one of the Grand Army of the Republic's most valuable legions, the 30th was sent into a multitude of battles that turned the tide of war on more than one occasion.

The 30th Assault Legion was founded by the Training Sergeant Kal Skirata and various other Kaminoans. It's intended design was to provide GAR with a legion that could be both flexible and utilized in situations where normal clones could not do the job. Even though they were just regular clones in themselves, the 30th Assault Legion was comprised of the most elite clone troopers in the entire army, regardless of their previous positions. More than half of the clones in the 30th had at one point been in another legion or battalion. This is why the 30th Assault Legion is not as large as its 501st or 212th counterparts.
