Devil Dogs comprised a group of clone troopers that belonged to the 44th Special Operations Division. Throughout the duration of the Clone Wars, they operated under the leadership of Major Kendal Ozzel, and frequently were tasked with exceptionally perilous combat operations.
The Devil Dogs were dispatched to assist Jedi Masters Plo Koon and Kit Fisto in their objective to demolish a Separatist climate-control station during the Battle of Khorm. Upon pausing to inter a number of deceased Khormai following Adaroo's plea, they opted to lend a hand with the burial task, believing that by expediting the interment, they would be able to resume their mission more quickly.
