What CLONE TROOPERS Thought About the Clone Wars 

“We clones have mixed feelings about the war, without it... we wouldn’t exist.” -Captain Rex

“By the time we'd made our way to the molten surface of Mustafar, it was apparent that Dellso had been a busy little bug. All by his lonesome, he'd found a previously hidden droid factory, fired it up and cranked out his own private army of battle droids. Needless to say, this got the men of the 501st...a little hot under the helmet, and not just because of all that lava. Truth be told we'd all had our fill of those gear heads during the war, and we couldn't stomach the thought of going through another one. So we blew them up. Blew up the droids, blew up the factory, damn near blew up the planet."

What was the average alien's view of the fact that the Republic used cloned human slaves as their army. Was it another example of human dominance, relief that their species wasn't the template, confusion that humans would treat their own as disposable or something else. As well as the fact that there are other species that make better warriors than humans that could've been used as the template.

*Looks at title* Clone: *My first day as a member of the 501st it was hot,sandy and chaotic nothing at all like the simulation at Kamino*

We know exactly what they were thinking *just like the simulations*

If some people had thousands of clones who grew up in different backgrounds and environments, it would make for some very interesting scientific studies

What about the favourite personal recreation activity of human males? *Kaminoan cloner:* I think there may be a problem with the immune system when they hit puberty - they suddenly need _a lot_ of tissues.… *Second Kaminoan:* Not all of them, but those that don't go through a lot of tissues seem to have problems with their feet instead of their nasal passages. They go through a lot of socks.

When my army is more ethical... You got problems.

You touched on a question I don't remember ever seeing answered. What did the Republic do with clones who were too badly injured to continue fighting?

"What I remember about the rise of the Empire is… is how quiet it was. During the waning hours of the Clone Wars, the 501st was discreetly transferred back to Coruscant. It was a silent trip; We all knew what was about to happen, what we were about to do. Did we have any doubts? Any private traitorous thoughts? Perhaps, but no one said a word. Not on the flight to Coruscant, not when Order 66 came down, and not when we marched into the Jedi Temple not a word"

It’s tragic that they’re we’re created just to fight. But they’re still the best army the galaxy ever saw.

"Execute Order 66." *Clone Troopers: We were good, but now we're bad.*

can we talk about how Allen has a very interesting voice.

Allan: A cool and collected soldier is much more effective than one that goes berserk Hardcase: I don't know could be fun!

This all seems to me that George Lucas had a cool idea, and didn't think anyone would think very deeply about the moral implications of the idea and know his good side faction doesn't seem so good anymore. Oh the joys of story making

The main movies need to head back to the clone wars.

Perfect timing for this video subject as I just started rewatching The Clone Wars series in anticipation of S7 dropping in a few weeks, and my fascination of Clone Troopers has reached a new peak. I’m diving in deeper with my understanding of the Clone Troopers this go-around, and paying more attention to their stories, backgrounds, plights and fights, etc. Their background truly is fascinating.

I think the animated series showed a lot better side of what the clones went through and how it impacted them throughout the whole war

Sargent Slick was woke. He was not a sheep.

A pragmatic Clone army (not set up to corrupt and destroy the Jedi, but just to win wars) would've had a clone commander class. Selected clones that show aptitude (or a separate production run) trained to be Generals, strategist and leaders by the best of the Republic War colleges. The Jedi would then be used in the military as elite special ops and specialist (inducing in intelligence), and only get command if _they earned it_ and had the training. The only issue is that a randomness factor would have to be included in the clone general's training so they wouldn't be easy to predict. And maybe a few more templates could be used? A strategic genius and a excellent soldier are two different things, and physical ability is not needed in a control room, unless it's really going wrong.

A fxxxing hell hole! Yet without this war they would not have existed. So ironic!

Just a thought: What if the 1st battle of Geonosis presented in ATC wasn't deliberately written to be a condemnation of Jedi hubris and incompetence, but was just a case of George Lucas being bad at visualising military strategy? All the battles _he_ wrote feature stupid tactics and strategies - Hoth, Naboo, Endor. Maybe he just can't write good military fiction from a professional soldier's perspective, but only for a visually exciting film sequence. ie Never let George Lucas plan a attack or raid… Still could be worse, Micheal Bay would just use the biggest bomb available and blow up national monuments with it. His opening move if asked to consult on an Iranian invasion would be to drop a daisy cutter on Mt. Rushmore. …

I always found it weird that the Kaminoans hadn't found a way to accelerate aging until 18 and then slow it down to normal speed (or even slower) so that they are kept in prime fighting age for as long as they could. Considering that the Kaminoans history was oriented around getting genetically perfect beings, I'm surprised that they didn't attempt to make a fighting force that lasts in prime condition longer.

Alan could talk about anything and I would be enthralled. Everything is well thought out and the inflections in his voice is oddly relaxing. And the occasional subtle dry humor is 💯

10:05 Damn that Clone got casted in a movie! LOL

Yeah this video is cool and but we all know what they really thought: "Good soldiers follow orders."

Seeing Fordo, Delta Squad, and any of the 2003 series is such a treat

Interesting thought for the new clone wars episodes: Non clone’s family and home gets destroyed by droids while they’re away on a mercenary mission. Clones come to fight the droids but they ultimately get wiped out, though the droids suffer extremely high casualties as well. The non clone helps a wounded clone that dies after a short while and then takes the clone’s armor and weapon and goes and kills the remaining droids in a fit of rage. Clone reinforcements arrive, and somehow the non clone gets onto the ship with the clones, and when it’s quickly discovered that the non clone is, well, not a clone, the clones decide to drop them off at the next planet. They all get ambushed and the non clone fights pretty great. Since they’ve suffered heavy casualties, they decide to keep the non clone around for a while. At first the clones are suspicious and disrespectful until they slowly get used to the non clone.

The beginning talks about team work, mandalorians like Jango gets fought great as individuals or as a team

“The Clones were indentured servants at best and at worst slaves.” Such accuracy. And what you said about Slick, that he was thinking of his brothers, that broke my heart.

PTSD is unbearable, the clones must’ve been so mentally and emotionally damaged after the war. With all the stuff they would have went through plus the fact that there was no real support structure to deal with these issues I wouldn’t be surprised if many clones eventually committed suicide.

_1st battle of Geonosis_ *Clone trooper Sargent ApO93 or Apone:* All right guys, we're a team and there's nothing to worry about. We come here, we kick some, we conquer. Is that understood? *Clones:* YES SIR! *Sargent Apone:* That's what we gonna do, sweethearts. We gonna go and get some. All right people, on the ready line! Are ya lean? *Clones:* Yeah! *Sargent Apone* Are ya mean? *Clones:* Yeah! *Sargent Apone:* WHAT ARE YOU? *Clones:* Lean and mean! *Sergeant Apone:* WHAT ARE YOU? HUD609! Get on the ready line, Marines, get some today! Get on the ready line! Move it out! Move it out, goddammit! Get hot! One, two, three, four! Get out, get out, get out! Move it out, move it out, move it out! Move it out, move it out, move it out! One, two, three, four, five, six, seven! Aaarrrrr, absolutely badassess! Let's pack 'em in! Get in there! _Then they disembark straight into enemy fire and are ordered to march forward and engage…_

I think my favorite perspective on the Clone Wars was Kal Skirata and his clone commandos he trained. That story, which you touched upon in this video, is one of my personal favorites showing how terrible the Jedi are for sanctioning such an army, sadly its legends :(

Can you do a what if scenario if the GAR rebelled against the Republic?

Think of every second of your live your fighting in constant war. Me: bro warhammer 40k this is real war xD

Isn't this where someone says something, something, somehow about being early? I know it would not be I...

The clone troopers were the best

Hold on, how are people commenting 18 hours ago when I see it as uploaded as 2 minutes ago?

The feels of this video are reeeeealll

6:44 that gunship looks like two eyes and a mouth withered away. Pretty disturbing.

Lol love the casual Temura Morrison at 10:05

Between the Imperium Of Man and the Interim Coalition of Governance from Xeelee Sequence which human supremacy regime is more cruel and bureaucratic?

How will Earth's different nation's military generals view The Clone Wars? Like the American Civil War?

The thing I love about the clones is that, they have more personality than other fighting forces in Star Wars periods

Unlisted? Well RU-vid has bugged out

I really like your perspective.

Why doesn’t anyone mention that the Non-Clone Officers Generally tended to be worse than the Jedi as people like then Captain Ozzel fucked up gains made by the Jedi only to be promoted to Admiral and given a fleet. Tarkin was only a small group of capable officers and the rest were politically motivated/aligned with the chancellor so you can fill in the rest to understand why the manipulative Palpatine was able to coherence the reluctant Jedi Order by basically saying: “Look the Judicial Officers suck and the PDF forces vary between planets, but still suck. Your Order has kept the Republic safe for 25,000 years and since the Reformation at peace. You’re our only hope.”

Hey you should do a series where earth is involved in every era of starwars and be resonable.

When I was being taught literally analysis, they told us 33 was the significant age for personality. This is the same age Christ was allegedly crucified... Shakespearian characters especially who were past this threshold where considered set in the ways. Hamlet was just under it, Macbeth was just over and Othelle is only described as “an old black.” More recently Bruce Wayne is celebrating his 33rd birthday at the climax of Batman Begins when he accepts that the persona of a billionaire playboy is his true mask.

What do you think would have happened if the Jedi council would have disclosed to the republic on their findings of the clone army back in season 6 of the clone wars?

Yeah, the Null's certainly would have volunteered to glass Kamino, or at least kill all the kaminoans. Kamino was still their home, after all.

I never saw the jedi using a clone army as them endorsing slavery. More as them being forced into by the sith.

What if this was part of Palpatine's plan on having anti-Jedi sediments?

Lets 'make profit -George Lucas

You can’t tell me most of these clones were clapping each others cheeks considering they didn’t get to see anybody but other clones and their trainers

can you do a video on what if the Clone Army had revolted?

Bring republic commando to disney+!

What if the clones just stopped, like something snapped in them and they didn't want to fight anymore and then they all didn't fight, what would the Republic do?

Could you do a video on what if yoda let Anakin and Obi-Wan Canobie die in order to capture Dooku on the first battle of Genesis

Some real world armed forces train for almost a year before being deployed overseas not just a few months or weeks lol

Loved the Karen Travis's 5 volume Republic Commando series. The book about Darth Plaguis set up the clone army origins.

How about every character(main and side) from Star Wars view Earth's muddy plus bloody history?

Hey love you’re videos

Here is a question I bet no Star Wars fan has asked: Do the Clones have Souls?

The RC novels gave some perspective on that. Prior to the Clone Wars anthology series.

Clone trooper........."Where the hell is the P.F.Chang's?"

This just made me think what happened to clones like cutt lequan, who deserted during order 66?

dope thumbnail

It is true Cut secretly deserted the army, but didn't stop him from being a SuperHero, he defended his family along with defend his brother Rex, Cut maybe have deserted the army but he was no Coward just a Sentimental Clone that didn't want to see more of his people die in front of him, but still got Commando Elite Assassin Combat Robots at his home Destroyed with little help from Rex but Cut got most robots there Destroyed, Kaminoan Security Gyard Grey Painted Clone Troopers certainly were not Cowards they did a lot action when the Separatist led by General Grievous alongside Ventress attacked Kamino to steal Clone D.N.A. But Shock Trooper Coruscant Sercuity Guards were definitely were Cowards + any Clone Captains along with Clone Commanders that hated Jedi Were rude assholes so evil corrupted no matter wow dad ass they are they would still get traumatized full of madness Brutality, while Shock Troopers didn't get traumatic mind madness, but they were still Evil but the most Evil Clone Commander Asshole Shock Trooper Commander that Hated the Jedi most was Commander Fox. Him along with his stupid Shock Troopers Coward excuse of soldiers mostly security Coruscant Guards COMPLETELY ENJOYED KILLING EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THE JEDI, MEN WOMEN, EVEN CHIDLREN, they weren't exactly average military more like Military Police Marshal Law Shock Trooper Coruscant Guards, A youtuber explains why commander Fox along with his shock to Rupert's brothers were hated by every other Battalions, Corps, Legions, each Clones that wanted to volunteer to be Shock Troopers was so they don't go to main offensive frontlines to get some Separatist Forces killed only then eventually to get killed, every other Clone Class Divisions called Shock Troopers Cowards, on Coruscant they did fight criminals Bounty hunters, illegal dealers, some Traitors even thought Ahsoka was a Traitor only to be proven wrong eventually, but they weren't challenging threats they didn't often go off Coruscant to other Planets, didn't even always go on the Offensive BIG ACTION. As for Fox one out of Four Clone Commanders that hated Jedi, ( Not Darman he loved his Jedi Wife). Fun Fact Anakin has always hated Commander Fox, and Commander Fox has always hated the Jedi, He doesn't care that they're Great Warriors, doesn't care about their Wise Plans, doesn't even care about any of the Jedi that die for the Clones, he enjoys Jedi getting Killed. After completing the training simulation on Kamino he signed up to be a Commander, but not to follow the Jedi Generals Orders, not even follow Jedi Grandmaster General Yoda's own Orders, he signed up as a Republic Senate Obedient Dog to obey only Politicians Orders and Regular Military soldiers like the Admiral. That's mostly why he didn't obey Anakin's order there, He's like the Terminator Model T850 in Terminator 3 that was send from 2032 to 2003, send by Katerine Connor, since John Connor Got Killed in 2032 by Terminator Model T850, then reprogrammed and send him back to the past to ensure the survival of John Connor and Kathetine Brewster, he wasn't programmed to follow 2003 John Connor Orders, he even said it himself, I am not programmed to follow your orders. Funny since Both Terminator And Star Wars are part of the Dark Horse Universe, but anyway point is that Commander Fox was like I am not signed up to follow Jedi Orders. And no doubt when Most Clones Executed Order 66 he Enjoyed Killing Jedi, not just the men, but the women, and the Children too, he's an asshole Animal so he got choked like an Asshole animal We hate Him. And even Darth VADER Still hated him, when Fox and his men shot VADER Mistakening him for a Jedi, that was the last Straw, VADER FORCED Choked him, got his neck broken and GOT Fox KILLED!

I like to imagine a alternate star wars timeline where the clones could choose to fight in the army or work jobs that support the republic while allowing the clones to live a life of their own.

I'll stop you right there. Any Clone Trooper who starts thinking, id throw out the airlock as an example to the others. they're not there to think, hence clone troopers.

Hello Allen

...Have you guys seen the latest Planter's Peanut add? I'm beginning to believe.

When I think of his name: Alan please add details

Very well done!

That hits me....

Upvotes on your video, downvotes on the Nanny Bloomberg ads starting and embedded in the video.

With the mounting Cancel the numbers especially after Geonosis how did the numbers of clients be replaced so quickly if a client takes nine years to grow

This is the way.

cybermen(doctor who) vs galactic empire/republic

...hard to expect people who couldn't detect Sith within their midst to be good leaders...

AS much as i love the clones i dont their near invincible as fans have made them out to be. I mean look what what old republic sith and republic troopers had to fight compared to the clones. Hell look at storm troopers and republic troopers after fall of the galactic empire and what they had to fight all way to legacy era. I still dont believe that werent that many non-clone combatants. You did have planetary defense forces and the judicial and would make sense the republic would also recruit non-clones in the regular army/navy.

Anyone know the name of the comic at 3:40?

I love you Allen

All it would have taken was an admiral or highly known commander to go rogue and lead the clones and the whole clone army could've rebelled against the republic with him.

The Clones should of had rights and a retirement plan after serving in the war.

Did anyone else see the guy skiing behind the fighter jet?

8:50 thaaaaaanks you called me out i got in one at 14 and still because of the lasting injury's refuse to take anything larger then a motorcycle on the road as a smaller target mean im less likely to die from some bs like a idiot not using a turn signal i got ptsd from it becuse i sailed off a cliff in the middle of the woods it tok them 6 hours to begin a search party to find me and the missing driver all the while i was being eaten alive corrosion from the gasoline spilling from the wreck i was also pinned under it with no chance of escape as far as i knew i was dead from the second i was pinned i expected to die but jst before going into complete shock and dieing from blood loss the freind i had as the driver was able to find help i dont think ive ever cried so hard i was so weak and on the verge of death honestly i "fell asleep" just as they arrived and they where able to force me to stay awake till rescue could arrive. if it was not for the nice pepole who found me basically dead by the time the medics arrived it would have been far far too late

New plot for Star Wars: Jedi go underwater on Kamino and find huge numbers of clone skeletons dumped by the Kaminoans

Watch those wrist rockets!

You can gene mod all you like but a humans gonna human.

Clone troopers don't die they just go MIA

Fighting for a Republic they know nothing about, or have even expierenced. For people they don't even know. Add insult to injury, if you survived the CW's, you get to die early. So Much more i can add. Very sad if you think about it, and the only people they can relate to are each other, not even other humans. But that whats make them badass's.

Geneosis was basically clone D day

I hadn't seen this video before but I have to say even though most jedi were bad commanders it seem like the 501st actually respected anakin's tactical ability

Excellent video

Who would win? Shadow Clone Jutsu vs. Clone troopers

A good man, that Cody

1:32 can anyone tell me where this is from? it looks kind of like an old PlayStatoin 2 Star Wars game, which greatly peaks my interest

Imagine possible growing pains, military boarding school, constant combat oriented training and businessmen leadership. if u werent created a Mando trained, Fett clone; u woulda cracked alot sooner
