==The battle==
In 22 BBY, during the Clone Wars, the Galactic Republic clone trooper unit known as the 224th was dispatched to the planet Mimban. During the battle, Clone Captain Sharp, who was serving with the Republic forces on Mimban, was injured when a blaster bolt hit his throat. The bolt distorted his voice, and he later told Jedi General Kit Fisto what had happened on Mimban during a battle on the planet Khorm.
The Mud-Jumpers of the 224th received a shout-out from Bettie-Bot VJ, the host of a Republic HoloNet News channel broadcast, during their fight on Mimban. Their shout-out was heard by a group of rookie clone troopers—Echo, Hevy, Fives, and Cutup—who were listening to the broadcast while maintaining a listening post on the moon of Rishi.
==Behind the scenes==
The battle was first mentioned in "Rookies," the fifth episode in the first season of the Star Wars: The Clone Wars television series.
