The Ghost Campaign was a campaign of the Clone Wars beginning shortly after the First Battle of Geonosis. The campaign was one of the relatively few offensive campaigns conducted by the Republic Navy during the early days of the war, under the command of the newly-promoted admiral Kal Trykan alongside senior commander CC-7748 of the Grand Army of the Republic. The campaign was initially conducted in relative secrecy, as compared to other Republic efforts during the war, and thus went largely without Jedi involvement. After the war, the campaign was continued against Separatist remnants, pirates, and certain independent planetary governments, in the form of the Trykan March. As a result of these campaigns, admiral Trykan was promoted to the rank of high admiral, eventually achieving the distinction of being a Baron of the Empire and Moff of a pair of neighboring sectors in the Expansion Region and Mid Rim.
