Tenk Lenso piloted Rogue 11 during the Battle of Hoth. He holds the distinction of being the first snowspeeder shot down by the approaching AT-ATs. In the radio dramatization, and some other early sources, Rogue 11 and Rogue 10 delivered Han and Chewie to the location of the Probe Droid so they could shoot it. Technically no Hoth Rogue Squadron can be complete without Tenk Lenso.

Tenk Lenso can be seen during Leia’s pilot briefing. Namely the back of his head can be seen. So… we know he wears a skullcap. I like to think maybe he’s an alien. The Rebel Alliance was far too human dominated before ROTJ. Maybe this guy was actually a Sakiyan or something. According to people who are good at these things, Tenk Lenso wore the same helmet as Red 4 John D. Branon, but I admit I have no idea how they’re seeing that. In a later scene in the hangar someone is wearing that helmet, but it’s impossible to say if that’s the same pilot.
