Anakin's battalion was a Grand Army of the Republic infantry and cavalry battalion of the 501st Legion, under the command of Jedi General Anakin Skywalker and Clone Captain Rex, with further officers including a Clone Commander and Clone Sergeant Appo. Despite the presence of that commander, it was Rex who served as Skywalker's first-in-command. During the Battle of Umbara, it was temporarily commanded by Jedi General Pong Krell, and Advanced Recon Commando Fives was assigned to the battalion.

Unlike other 501st Legion color schemes, some members of this battalion had a blue, thick, vertical line on their helmet up to their visors, while in other armor sets the line descended to the bottom of the helmet. The battalion was composed of clone troopers that were divided into multiple platoons, and was supplemented by dozens of Advanced Recon Force Scout Troopers on All Terrain Reconnaissance Transports.
