For the first day of Star Wars Month I wish to rectify an oversight. It has come to my attention that not everyone remembers the names of the main characters of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. Allow me then, to remind all of you of who these brave beings were--
Jyn Erso--Daughter of Galen Erso and habitual criminal turned Rebel agent. Gave everything to acquire the plans for the Empire's ultimate weapon.
Cassian Andor--Rebellion intelligence officer. Together with Jyn Erso they were able to acquire the Death Star plans.
K-2S0--Reprogrammed enforcement droid. Sacrificed himself to give Andor and Erso the time they needed to secure the plans.
Bodhi Rook--Imperial defector who transmitted the plans to the Rebellion in orbit around Scarif.
Chirrut Imwe--Guardian of the Kyber Temple. Although blind, he is as deadly with his staff as a Jedi with a lightsaber.
Baze Malbus--Partner with Chirrut Imwe as a Guardian. Wields a heavy blaster rifle.
Saw Gerrera--Left the main Rebellion to fight his own war against the Empire. Killed in the attack on Jedha.
All these and many, many more laid down their lives, gave their last full measure of devotion, to defeat the Empire and restore freedom to the galaxy. They deserve to be remembered.
Long Live The Rebellion.
