Can you imagine how the commanders felt when they found out they would have Jedi placed over them in the chain of command?
Sure they had been raised and trained to believe the Jedi were good and they were made to serve the republic together. But it had to have grated that they were all going to have to take order form pacifist space monks with an unknown level of experience in combat or military strategy and logistics. The commanders were probably worried that they were going to end up with incompetent generals or worse.
Instead they end up with this grab bag of, largely, the nicest people you’ve ever known.
Ponds probably thinks he lucked out. Master Windu is sensible, levelheaded and spends half or more of his time safely tucked away in the Jedi Temple where he’s unlikely to get shot.
Cody is doomed from the start. He stood absolutely no chance against Obi Wan. No man should be that combination of confident, compassionate and hot.
Same goes for Bly. Honestly it probably felt like the floor collapsed under him when Master Secura took command.
Rex is honestly too busy dealing with Skywalker’s antics and his manic nexu padawan to even wonder if he got a good deal or a bad one.
Master Mundi seemed sensible and level headed until he started telling stories about his wives and showing holos of his kids.
Wolffe probably thought he lucked out at first. Mater Plo seems like a dignified older gentleman who knows to stay out of the line of fire… aaaand he’s taking a jaunt out in the vacuum of space without a suit.
These Jedi are all crazy.
