The Parjai squad was an elite unit of clone paratroopers who served in the 2nd airborne company of the 212th attack battalion during the Clone Wars. As the Clone war neared its end, this elite group of Clone troopers was called in to help Jedi General Obi-Wan Kenobi, as one of the first squads to land on Utapau, before his fight with General Grievous.
So, I’m going to break down exactly who the Parjai squad were and their horrific actions in the aftermath of Order 66.

The Parjai Squad was a part of the 2nd airborne company, which was a part of the 212th attack battalion, which in turn was part of the 7th Sky Corps of the Third Systems army.

The squad was led by Clone Sergeant Barlex, who was a non commissioned officer. Barlex was born on Kamino just like every other clone trooper of the Republic, as was one of the first to complete his training with the Mandalorians on the planet. Barlex was known for his absolute hatred of the Clone Special forces units, including the Omega squad and Delta Squad. By the time he met the troopers of the Omega Squad for the first time, he was very cautious about supporting them and the rest of the Clone Special forces, as he had lost 10 of his Close brothers, who were killed by Mandalorians. Barlex, and the rest of the 2nd airborne company soon after, absolutely hated the Omega squad because they adopted the Mandalorian mindset and culture.

Unfortunately, we don’t know the names of any of the other troopers in the squad, but they were definitely a very close group of clone brothers.

After Obi-wan Kenobi had received word of General Grievous’ presence on Utapau, a small unit of Clone Shadow Troopers were sent to scout out the planet’s sinkhole cities for any separatist activity and also to place jamming devices which would allow Barlex and Commander Cody’s men to provide support for Obi-Wan, without notice.

After the jammers were successfully placed in the sinkhole cities of Utapau, the Clone Shadow troopers notified Barlex, who brought his Parjai squad to Utapau immediately, along with Commander Cody.

The parjai squad were instrumental in helping the Republic forces to defeat the separatist droids on the planet during Obi-Wan's fight with General Grievous, eventually resulting in a complete and total republic victory.

Unfortunately however, the chilling message from Chancellor Palpatine was transmitted to Barlex and the rest of the Parjai, demanding that they execute Obi-Wan Kenobi as part of Order 66. The Parjai squad weren’t directly responsible for attempting to kill Kenobi on the planet, but they did pledge their full and unwavering loyalty to the Chancellor at this point, and very soon after, the Empire.

Following the creation of the Empire, things get a lot more horrible. The Parjai squad, along with many others from the 212th remained on Utapau after the creation of the Empire, taking the former neutral world under imperial control and to participate in the event that went on to be known as the subjugation of Utapau. Unfortunately, the Parjai squad was ordered to round up every single member of the Utapau resistance movement on the planet, including Tion Medon, who greeted Obi-Wan when he arrived on the planet. On top of mass arrests and harsh treatment of the civilians, the Clones of the Parjai squad deported many natives on the planet, removing them from their homes without notice or fair warning. On top of this, they brutally enslaved a large part of the population, before sending some of these slaves off world to be used in harsh labor camps, where they would work until they were completely exhausted and eventually die.
