When Han lands on Lando's facility in Cloud City, the smuggler seems notoriously cagey-he tells Chewie to keep his guard up, and seems more than ready for a fight. That includes Lando Calrissian, Han's former best buddy who sells the smuggler out to the Empire in The Empire Strikes Back. Han's commander courtmartialed him for his insubordination, and Han returned to a life of crime-with a new best buddy by his side.
That's where he met Chewbacca-but instead of skinning the injured Wookie, Han defied orders and helped him escape. Shortly afterwards, however, the Empire sent Han to help with an Imperial slaving operation. While training, Han proved to be an excellent pilot, and he graduated at the top of his class. Han enrolled in the Imperial Academy after running away from his mentor, a pirate named Garris Shrike.
Crispin's novel The Hutt Gambit told the story. They're not official Imperial regalia, but they are a military insignia (Corellia is part of the Empire, after all), and serve as pretty much the only onscreen confirmation of Han Solo's Imperial past.īefore Disney chucked out the old "Legends" canon, A.C. The markings on Han's pant legs, which appear in all three original Star Wars movies, are called Corellian Bloodstripes, and are awarded by the Corellian military to soldiers who perform particularly bravely in the heat of battle. If you don't believe us, the proof is right on Han's costume.
