What Did The 501st Legion Do After Destroying The Jedi Temple With Anakin Skywalker During Order 66?
Anakin Skywalker led his 501st Legion in the attack on the Coruscant Jedi Temple in Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith, but the fate of these clone troopers is never seen on screen in Star Wars. Anakin was the Jedi general of the 501st during the Clone Wars, leading his men alongside the fan-favorite character Captain Rex. Their blue armor makes them distinctive, as does their reputation for being off the cuff as their Jedi general. Unfortunately, they became key players in the tragedy of Order 66, all under the command of their general.
Star Wars: The Clone Wars revealed that there were organic inhibitor chips implanted in all the clone troopers when they were just embryos, which would make the clones follow any order without question when activated. Order 66 acted as these chips' activation, and thus the 501st loyally followed Anakin when he marched to his brutal assault on the Jedi Temple.
