Description: Galactic Marine Clone Trooper

Detachment: Clone Trooper Detachment
Context: Episode III: Revenge of the Sith
The Galactic Marines, originally known as the 21st Nova Corps of the 4th Sector Army, was an elite unit that was created as the Grand Army of the Republic diversified during the Clone Wars. Galactic Marines wore special body armor with maroon coloration. They were usually armed with DC-15A blaster rifles. The Marines were distinguished by their unique visor gear: synthmesh designed to keep out various hazards such as snow, sand, airborne fungus, and ash.


The 501st approval requirements are listed in black.
