History
The Republic Clone Academy was founded on the aquatic planet of Kamino in 965 RSY when Senator Varkis Drayce, in collaboration with Jedi Master Dooku, commissioned the creation of a Clone Army by the Kaminoan Ruling Council.
As the years progressed, the Kaminoans meticulously designed and perfected the genetic template for what would become the backbones of all Clone troopers. However, recognizing the necessity for proper training in order to reach perfection, the Kaminoan Ruling Council sought out skilled warriors across the galaxy to instill the foundational combative skills in the emerging Clone Army.
An initial batch of Clone troopers were produced, consisting of a small experimental unit of 30 Clones, the Kaminoan Ruling Council launched the first class of the Clone Academy. To their surprise, these Clones - while genetically imperfect - far surpassed their expectations, with all becoming a proficient fighting force and a subset of these Clones demonstrating exceptional leadership despite the unconventional attributes they had developed.
The initial batch of Clone troopers would mostly be assigned as Null-class Advanced Recon Commandos while the subset would be allocated across the Grand Army of the Republic to fill various officer and command positions. As more batches would be created, the Clones would eventually form the 104th Armored Battalion and mark the formal beginning of the Cadet Academies mission - to ensure that the Republic maintains a professional and proficient fighting force at all times.
