Kit Reveal - Captain Drogan

I really hate OC characters. Star Wars is a franchise where basically every character has a backstory and they had to just make something up? In the EU, there were 16 named characters on the Endor Strike team. In Disney canon, there are at least four or five. They couldn't bother to pick any one of them? Why not Bren Derlin, who was present on both Hoth and Endor? Hell, in Disney canon Kes Dameron, Poe’s father, was on the strike team.
