Wild Leader represented the callsign for the commander of Wild Squadron. In the era of the Galactic Civil War, Denish Wraive held this designation during the Hunt for Shadow Wing, even fighting the 204th Imperial Fighter Wing in a battle above the planet of Chadawa. Subsequently, Wraive met his end at the Battle of Jakku.
The first reference to Wild Leader occurred in Alexander Freed's 2021 book, Victory's Price.
