Honor Thy Fallen and Shout Their Names From The Stars

“We’ll be Rogue Squadron. For them. For everyone who should have been standing with us today.”Honor Thy Fallen and Shout Their Names From The Stars is the fifty-third chapter in the Re-Entry: Journey of the Whills series. Published December 18th 2016, it is 1801 words long, and contains SPOILERS FOR ROGUE ONE.
==Summary==
This part takes place in 5232/Imperial Year 20, immediately following the destruction of the first Death Star and the following award ceremony.
Wedge Antilles is looking for Luke Skywalker at the Yavin IV base, and finds him taking potshots at his medal. Confused, Antilles asks him what he's doing. Skywalker tosses him his own medal, and asks him if he wants to shoot it, too.
They both end up shooting at their medals. Antilles shares, at Skywalker's prompting, that he didn't show at the ceremony for everyone who couldn't—he lost many friends during this fight, and the fight over Scarif where most of the fleet was destroyed. Skywalker showed up for everyone who was on the ground during the battle and who could do nothing else but wait for the end of the fight.
Skywalker asks Antilles to tell him about the Scarif team, the ones who got them the Death Star plans. Antilles tells him he can do better, if it hasn't been deconstructed yet; he brings him to the memorial. 
The ground team's name was Rogue One. Pictures and names are attached.
They leave their medals next to the part of the memorial that belong to Scarif.
Antilles calls Skywalker's Boss, to the latter's confusion–but Antilles argues that the Lead should have faith they can do it, and that's Skywalker.

The Whills are mentionned. The names of Chirrut Îmwe and Baze Malbus from the Rogue One team both have mention of the Whills, as a Sage of the Whills and a Guardian of the Whills, from Jedha. Antilles tells Skywalker that the Whills "were some kind of guardian badasses" on Jedha, where a Jedi Temple of some kind stood during the Republic. Jedha City was annihiliated as the first test of the Death Star.
