I know the Navy squadrons are reinforced with NPCs, is the same true for the Army squads, or do we just have the NPC enlisted troops for support? -----------------------

Basically, yeah. The good part is that you have practically unlimited bodies for your incoming bolts plus some of them know how to hit the wall of the inside of a starship really really well.  They'll be the "sad losses" that occur throughout the campaign, unless someone goes AWOL.

You see, what they arn't telling you is, the fact that the only 'Subway' in three hundred Billion lightyears is on this planet, and we'll do anything to get to it. Dramatic Music is a high value to those of us who havn't had a foot long hamsandwhich in a year... Or two. -----------------------

BTW, Army grunts, let's be a little more imaginative and put more than just humans on these Golans and whatever else we'll be fighting on.
Some of these ships join the NR navy straight from their homeworld's defense fleet. Imagine having to fight a mess of Wookiees, Rodians...or Gungans. -----------------------

Well, I seem to remember that even in the Rebel ships on the movies, humans did seem to dominate... Oh well, my char's not exactly human either, so I guess I'll try to add in some variety. Although, to be honest, all I usually say is "soldier" or "enemy", so I really leave it up to the imagination... -----------------------

Actually, the rebel ship we saw in ANH was primarily Alderaanian, which is mostly human. Who knows what species inhabits the planet that you guys are fighting over. Common sense says that that species will most likely dominate the staff personnel, unless they're primitives. Don't forget to take into account their special qualities like surviving in vacuum if necessary. Let's be as realistic to the SW storyline as we best can, and yes, you can probably include Gungans if there's a reason they should be there.  Phew, I'm out of breath.

Well, think of it this way, if they've got Gungans, we've already won. No one of any intelligence would lose with those things on the other side  Anyways, D-13 has a point, I guess I'll try to add something specific rather than leaving it to the imagination... BTW, what is the species on this planet anyways? -----------------------

A couple notes.
1. Lesbians won't sleep with you, no matter how much you Navy boys dress like the Sailor Moon cast.
2. If you are losing oxygen in your starfighter, isn't is possible to breathe simply by putting your helmet on and using your suit air?
Bonus Comments.
3. Let's keep this topic clear for actual comments/questions. We don't have the time or inclination to filter out the crap from the real queries.
4. Edit your posts for profanity if need be. The CoCs still apply.

Notes about the cockpits of Imperial Starfighters:
The following starfighters have no internal atmosphere, a pressured suit with helmet and breathing gear MUST be worn or pilot dies when he leaves the docking bay:
ALL TIES.
EXCEPT: The TIE Defender.
Gunships have internal atmospheres, HOWEVER, since there is only one standard flight suit for the Imperial Navy, the same gear is worn when flying it. The only difference is that the helmet may be removed when in the cockpit. DURING COMBAT the helmet must be worn, because all of the com gear is built into it (additionally since the helmet + suit are a pressurized suit, if you're forced to eject, you'll have something to breathe). -----------------------

T/Ds are mostly for Venom/NHC. I haven't seen one used in a normal squadron before.
One thing to keep in mind with squadron stories.. if you don't have the same ship, you don't perform at the same level and it can throw off formation quite a bit. -----------------------
