Bly and Secura set a trap for the droid, with Secura beheading it. In 22 BBY, Bly with the help of Jedi Aayla Secura, were sent on a mission to retrieve information from the memory banks of a tactical droid. Being a commander, Bly helped to relay regular clone troopers' messages to their Jedi Generals. Bly was trained as an ARC trooper, which gave him a more independent mindset in regards to different tactical situations. Bly was among the first of clone marshal commanders to be trained by Alpha-17.
