Lewis, Beka
this woman was a commando who served the Alliance during the years leading up to the Battle of Yavin. She was Brion Peck's second-in-command, and had fallen in love with him when their unit was attacked by a group of mercenaries who had been hired by the Empire. Beka was killed in the fight, and Peck never forgave the Empire or mercenaries in general for her death.
