* LastDisrespects: [[spoiler:As seen in "The Return", the helmets of Mayday's fallen men that were set up to honor them were just scattered around along with his helmet, implying the troopers under Nolan's command posthumously carried out the act. Even in death, Nolan still manages to hurt Mayday one last time by not letting him and his brothers rest in peace]].

* TookALevelInDumbass: Stormtroopers (Scout Troopers included) grow even ''more'' incompetent in ''Return of the Jedi''. While in ''A New Hope'' they're under orders to let the Rebels escape from Death Star and in ''The Empire Strikes Back'' Snowtroopers actually won the Battle of Hoth, here they don't have any excuses for losing, yet they're not only repeatedly outmatched but also outsmarted by the Rebels and, worse, Ewoks. It's especially bad that the Emperor claimed the Endor garrison to be a legion of his best troops, yet they aren't even close to be the best. To sum it up:

* KnightOfCerebus: Even though he's no Palpatine, Nolan's behavior towards the clones in his sole appearance is ''outright abuse'' that is played ''far'' more seriously than Rampart's smug ambition. His unique cruelty is a grim reminder of the threat the clones are about to face in the future, and is a wake up call for Crosshair that the Empire does ''not'' reward its people for their loyalty.

* LaserGuidedKarma: Quite literally. After disrespecting the clones appointed under him and [[spoiler:coldly allowing Mayday to die]] in spite of everything he'd done to fulfill his orders, he earns a blaster bolt through the chest by Crosshair, the trooper who'd given up everything to serve the Empire, only to discover through Nolan's callousness how little they actually value him. Judging by the state of Barton IV, his corpse was probably left to waste away with the rest of his clone victims.

Little did Nolan realize the Empire considers ''him'' expendable too, that almost no one cares that he’s gone. Judging by the state of Barton IV, IV afterwards, his corpse was probably left to waste away with the rest of his clone victims.

Added DiffLines:

* NeverMyFault: Nolan blamed Crosshair and Mayday for letting the raiders steal the cargo and he ''especially'' blamed them for failing to retrieve the cargo. However, it was ''his'' responsibility as the officer in charge to secure the cargo until it got delivered from Barton IV, thus the theft of the equipment could’ve been prevented or the equipment could’ve been recovered had he lent the assistance of his men. By refusing to do that, the theft of the cargo and the failure to recover it are both on him.

* DirtyCoward: Nolan would sacrifice ''anyone'' except himself for the Empire, that he’d much rather hide behind his own men, refusing to lend his own troops for assistance just for his own protection rather than the outpost’s safety. [[spoiler:Apparently, he’s only brave enough to abuse Crosshair and Mayday when they’re vulnerable and too weak/emotionally damaged to act against him. The moment Crosshair raises his blaster and points it at him, the Lieutenant reacts with shock and fear moments before he’s killed]].

He's as much of a scumbag as Pong Krell was, but this makes the former Jedi look like the Clone's biggest supporter by comparison]].
