After Ord Provedence and Woostri the 82nd had once again taken a large amount of casualties, whole platoons and companies having been wiped out in the fighting. Somewhat morbidly this meant a lot of upward mobility for the survivors of these battles and Junior had been no exception.

After jumping into Woostri with the rest of his platoon he had been wounded in an explosion that had sent shrapnel into his shoulder and the concussion wave sent him into a wall, further driving the shrapnel in and dislocating his shoulder. On the orders of the battalion surgeon, and against Noah’s wishes, he had been evacuated after only being on the ground for a few hours.

It took another few weeks of surgery and bacta tank dips when he was finally ready to return to service. Upon his return he’d found out his platoon had been decimated in the fighting, with only twenty-five percent having gotten through the battle unscathed. Due to this his platoon had been stood down with its members being dispersed throughout the company to replenish losses.

With the rest of the company's officer positions being staffed, Junior was effectively sidelined and left lingering without a command. It was Captain Cho, his company commander that had been his saving grace, recommending to Colonel Spruance, the regiment commander, that Noah’s skills would be suited to command of the Pathfinder platoon assigned to the regimental headquarters.

From there he’d been promoted, transferred and tasked with rebuilding the platoon. He had of course poached quite of a few of his former platoon members and had been able to fill out two squads out of four needed before being assigned to transport relief supplies Velusia, something that had been characterized by the Colonel as a ‘gross misallocation of military resources’ but had been overruled by higher ups.

This was how he found himself to be sitting in the cargo bay of a transport ship, one of his two squads with him while the other rested, guarding relief supplies. His eyes were brought up from the datapad he was holding, doing paperwork while listening to an audiobook, and spied the Jedi Master. Standing he nodded to her, removing his headphones in the process. “What can we do for you ma’am?”

Junior’s eye’s looked back towards the datapad before swiping the interface and pushing a few buttons that showed the title of the audio book as ‘Leadership: In Theory and In Practice’ before swiping away the interface before looking back up to her. “It’s a recommended reading item for officers, I’m chasing a promotion to captain.”

When she asked about helping Junior shrugged. “Not much to help with ma’am. All the supplies are already packed and ready to deploy once we touch down on Velusia. Other than that I’ve got the medics ready to treat any wounded that might have sprung up. Other than that we’re just waiting for orders.”

Junior went back to typing and swiping through his datapad for a few beats before turning back to the Jedi. “So tell me ma’am, why did they decide to send a Jedi on such a mission? Seems like a gross misallocation of valuable resources…”
