Edmon Rampart

Edmon Rampart was a human male who held the rank of Vice Admiral in the Navy of the Galactic Empire shortly after its formation from the Galactic Republic. Eagerly taking on his role in the new Empire, Rampart oversaw the implementation of chain codes and the enlistment of soldiers for the Imperial Army as part of Project War-Mantle. Believing the loyalty of recruits was more valuable to the Empire than the clone troopers formerly used by the Republic, Rampart had confidence in the success of his initiative.
At Tipoca City on Kamino, Rampart presented to Governor Wilhuff Tarkin the first Elite Squad, and following a successful mission meant to test the squad's capabilities under their new Commander, the enhanced clone trooper CT-9904 "Crosshair," Tarkin left Project War-Mantle in Rampart's hands. On Tarkin's orders, Rampart oversaw the destruction of Tipoca City and the Imperial appropriation of Kamino's cloning technology and key medical personnel.
Soon after his return to Coruscant, Rampart presented the Imperial Defense Recruitment Bill to the Imperial Senate as a means to formalize the transition from clone troopers to conscripted non-clone troopers. Rampart was later arrested by order of Emperor Palpatine himself following an investigation by Senators Riyo Chuchi of Pantora and Bail Organa of Alderaan into his role in the destruction of Tipoca City, despite claiming to be following orders.
