There are always casualties in any war, and the Battle of Naboo is no exception, especially among the human pilots of Bravo Squadron. The first onscreen death belongs to Bravo 4 pilot: Lt. Rya Kirsch, played by a familiar face to all fans of the behind the scenes team that would bring the modern Star Wars films to life: Effects supervisor and all-round genius John Knoll, clearly loving his 'John Doe- cameo role experience!
