… They say that we are created for the purpose of war, and it's true, that's why we were created.

They say that we blindly follow orders without hesitation. It's also true, this is in our genes to

follow orders and to die by the order of our commander. It's true, that we don't have a face,

because even without our helmets our faces don't give us something unique, or any identity. All

religions say that we don't have souls. That is probably too, because I don't know, and they

should know better. Therefore no one cares if we are dead or not. I doesn't matter how many of

us will die, these deaths will just be left on the paper, and our place will be immediately taken by

others just like us. They say that our life span is 30 years. It is also true, but usually we don't live

that long. They say that we don't have any feelings, and it's almost true, because we have some

feelings that help in battle. There are rumors that we are mindless, but that is not true, because

we think, and think about many things, and it is accepted, as long as it doesn't influence at our

combat. We keep all our thoughts to ourselves, because no one is interested in them. We don't

show any pity, or mercy, because our enemies will never show any to us. We don't hate when we

kill, because it is our job to kill, and there is nothing personal. We are trained from our childhood

to fight, and we go to battle at the age of ten. Of course, by that time we look like in the age of

23. So we can say that we don't have any childhood. We are not considered living beings, just

some tools made for killing. We don't know what toys are, for they are useless in combat, we

don't have any leisure time, for it is not required. We have no private property, and the only right

we have – the right to die, but only when there is no option, besides surrendering. And we can't

surrender. We don't have the right to surrender. When we all were created, the ones who were

not capable to give the expected results at the tests were destroyed. For perfection all "failings"

were destroyed. And, once again, no one cared, for no one cares when a spoiled toothbrush or

something else is destroyed, and we are considered "things". We are the shield of the Republic,

but in reality we are just pawns in someone's game to distract the Jedi order from the real things.

And, as pawns, we fight other pawns, which are controlled by the same man who controls us.

You ask me, what is my name? I don't think that you want to know my designation number, for I

don't have a name. None of us has... We are called the clone troopers.

We are the property of the Grand Republic.
