Asyrphus

Asyrphus was a terrestrial astronomical object where the Rebel Alliance's 61st Mobile Infantry were deployed at some point between 0 BBY and 3 ABY. According to the novel, the massacre at Asyrphus took place during Hazram Namir's service in the 61st Mobile Infantry and prior to the main events of Battlefront: Twilight Company. Namir joined the company shortly after the Battle of the Tower, which occurs nineteen years after the Clone Wars in the novel, so the massacre at Asyrphus must have occurred sometime between 0 BBY and 3 ABY. On Asyrphus, the company faced a bombardment which massacred many of its troopers, including a comm tech and her droid. Hazram Namir, a soldier in the 61st who knew the technician, remembered the massacre on Asyrphus in his mind when recalling her in 3 ABY, and later that year when he compared the losses the 61st took on Asyrphus to the company's recent losses in its command structure.
