The Mission to Anoth was a retrieval mission during the Shrike War to rescue Morgo Sunny. It was a fateful turning point of the Shrike War and one of the most memorable and horrifying memories for Thrawn and would haunt him forever. Anoth was the rendezvous point for Sunny after he had completed the Mission to Vulpter. Sunny ran into crystal worms and Shrike on the planet Anoth. Imperials arrived in waves for his savior, beginning with Thrawn. Even Patton was involved in the rescue, landing on the planet himself.
