Star Wars ANH Luke Question

[Mr. Laser Beam]

(learning maneuvers like drifting slowly to the left), firearms use (how to miss Care Bears at close range), discipline and alertness (bitching about drills while a geriatric desert hermit deactivates your space station's tractor beam 30 feet away), intimidation (practicing saying "you Rebel scum!" repeatedly until you get just the right tone and obvious contempt), and how to handle death by crushed windpipe gracefully (in case you're assigned to Lord Vader)

You forgot the Stormtroopers' dedicated training on how to hit your head on a bulkhead.

 

[T'Girl]

Luke was under the false impression that his father was "a navigator on a spice freighter," maybe that's the academy he wanted to attend, navigator's school.

Private schools do employ the term "academy."

It's possible that her (rich, powerful and privileged) parents kept a mechanism in place and Leia had no idea that her piss was being replaced at every turn.

I believe the mechanism was called "taking the piss".

 

[Gaith]

He was referring to Starfleet Academy, obviously.

Young Luke was one seriously confused teenage boy.
