Veron

Veron was a terrestrial astronomical object where the species known as Gwerax-hai were captured, typically using net-throwers. The Rebel Alliance's 61st Mobile Infantry held an open recruiting drive on Veron sometime by the year 0 BBY.Battlefront: Twilight Company establishes that Brand was part of the 61st Mobile Infantry by the time of the battle on Vir Aphshire, which occurred concurrent to the Battle of Yavin. Brand must have therefore joined the company prior to the Battle of Yavin, the beginning of which is dated to 0 BBY by Star Wars: Galactic Atlas. At the recruiting drive, the bounty hunter Brand joined the infantry company in an attempt to get close enough to Captain Micha Evon to assassinate him for his bounty. Lying about her identity, the bounty hunter smuggled her kit onto the 61st's CR90 corvette, the Thunderstrike.
Evon cited Brand's arrival in the company on Veron when she eventually attempted to kill him on the planet Allst Prime. The captain subsequently convinced her to stay in the 61st and give up the bounty on him. Brand also recounted joining the company on Veron when telling her backstory to the 61st recruit Roach on the planet Coyerti in 3 ABY.
