Description
Some time after the Battle of Hoth, Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, and Lieutenant  Barlon Hightower leave Arbra to investigate a crippled freighter which appears to have come from Hoth. Luke believes that Wedge Antilles, here described as an old friend who grew up with him on Tatooine, is aboard. When they come aboard, the ship appears to be abandoned, but the ship's log contains a recording of Wedge's voice. The recording tells the story of how Wedge and fellow pilot Wes Janson survived the Battle of Hoth. They were stranded there for months, fending off the deadly cold and Wampa attacks. One day, when Wedge went out hunting for ice scrabblers, a group of scavengers led by Arns Grimraker came across the wounded Janson and killed him. Wedge avenged his friend by stealing the scavengers' ship, and leading their pursuing ships into the path of the TIE fighters who had been left behind in the Hoth system to search for Rebel stragglers. The tape ends with Wedge noting that his vessel is now adrift. However, it turns out that Wedge is still alive, and was merely outside the transport doing exterior repairs. Wedge is reunited with his friend Luke, and the four Rebels return to Arbra to celebrate.
