501st Journal
The entries summarized their most famous battles, captured the feelings of individual troopers, and traced the 501st from its origins in the Clone Wars to its development as “Vader’s Fist” during the Galactic Civil War.
The journal was kept as secret as the missions undertaken by the 501st; only after the fall of the Galactic Empire were the journals recovered.

The Clone Wars (22–19 BBY) were a significant, galactic-spanning conflict, between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems, which had declared a state of independence from the Republic.
The Galactic Civil War (4 BBY–5 ABY), also referred to as the revolution or the rebellion, was a galactic power struggle in which the Alliance to Restore the Republic waged a rebellion against the ruling Galactic Empire in an attempt to restore democratic rule to the galaxy.
