COMFORTABLY NUNB
One of the Resistance fighters flying an X-wing

Calrissian’s Sullustan co-pilot from the Battle of Endor, Nien
Nunb. In the Princess Leia-focused book Moving Target and
Battlefront: Twilight Company, Nien Nunb is revealed to be a vital
combatant in the fight against the Empire, and willingly signs
back up to take on the First Order. Actor Mike Quinn, who plays
Nunb in Return of the Jedi, was tapped to bring life back to the
character he made famous for The Force Awakens.

Through the Force, General Leia can feel the

Order 66 in Revenge of the Sith and Obi-Wan Kenobi feels

sensed Luke was in danger at the climax of The Empire
Strikes Back and knew he was safe after the destruction
of the Death Star in Return of the Jedi.
