Biography
Victory at Endor
At the Battle of Endor, when Celchu emerged from the second Death Star, he found that the A-wing squadron he had been assigned to on short notice, Green Squadron, had been destroyed while attacking the Super Star Destroyer Executor. He regrouped with Red Squadron near the Mon Calamari cruiser Serenity instead. Together with Red Squadron, he defended Serenity from the Silver and Blue squadrons of the 181st Imperial Fighter Wing while the Mon Calamari cruiser engaged the ISDs Chimaera and Adjudicator. Celchu was being pursued by Turr Phennir's TIE fighter when the Death Star exploded, causing the 181st to fall back.[2]
Funeral of Garm Bel Iblis
Tycho Celchu attended the funeral of Garm Bel Iblis aboard the Guardian in the Corellian system in 37 ABY. There, he reflected on the tensions between Corellia's Five Worlds Prime Minister Aidel Saxan and her Minister of Defense Thrackan Sal-Solo, and noticed that Gilad Pellaeon seemed to have less of a problem with nonhumans than his retired Imperial starfighter ace Turr Phennir. Tycho had a brief conversation with Saxan on the subject of neither of them having children, and he revealed that his wife, Winter, was in retirement but being kept in reserve by Galactic Alliance Intelligence. Regarding his own continued service, Celchu explained that chief of state Cal Omas had personally requested him to stay on for the purpose of overseeing and training pilots. After Thrackan Sal-Solo held an impromptu speech portraying Bel Iblis as a paragon of Corellian independence and belligerence, Celchu remarked that it could have gone worse.[2]
