It's Fake Wedge! This character, John D. Branon appears in the Rebel briefing scene in a ANH and is the guy who complains about having to hit an exhaust port thats only 2 metres and Luke Skywalker famously tells him he used to bulls eye womp rats that weren't much bigger, however the novelization and the original script called for this character to be Wedge Antilles earning Branon the nick name amongst fans of Fake Wedge.
John D. isn't the briefing scene character. Get your facts right. He is Red Four, played by Jack Klaff and is credited as such in the film. The character in the briefing scene is played by Colin Higgins (in the script it's Wedge), so only he is 'Fake Wedge'.
