Welcome to Hondo’s Hideout. Today I’m taking a look at a Star Wars droid that came along well after the original films. As we all know C-3PO and R2D2 were instant fan favorites when they showed up in the opening scene in 1977. Since then there have been tons of memorable droids through out the movies and shows. K-2SO came onto the scene in the 2016 movie Rogue One. He was a reprogrammed security droid and would prove useful to the rebellion and gaining access to the Death Star Plans…

His filecard is pretty straight forward as SEAL’s do learn demolitions as part of their training pipeline. However during the time his character came out the SEAL rating (equivalent to a US Army and US Marine MOS) was not one that a new recruit could jump into right away. From my understanding one had to…
