    Tank’s out there somewhere. Star Wars most mysterious emigré.

    I just watched the scene in the movie. It does indeed sound like Luke says "that's what you said when Biggs and Tank left". So I think that solves that question. As for what happened to him, I don't see how it matters. It's simply one friend from Luke's past who left. As far as the movies and story are concerned, he doesn't need a background or "ending". As in real life, friends appear and disappear, without having a major impact on our lives.
    Biggs happened to join the Rebellion, that's why his character was more important. For all we know, Tank may have been killed trying to find a ship in Mos Eisley, or simply moved to another planet and had a family there. It's not important.

    I think the lack of information just adds to his mysterious persona.

    IIRC, there was a scene in BoBF at the Tosche Station. Who was in there? Or am I misremembering? BoBF was pretty forgettable.

    You are correct - the two people in that scene were Camie and Fixer.

    I bet Tank was the funny one, you know - a big character.
