[Star Wars] - were there any Alderaanians in the Galactic Empire’s military (Specifically the Death Star)? How did they feel about learning of the destruction of their home world?

In canon or legends, were there any stories about soldiers who were from Alderaan or Jedha and how they responded to what the empire did?

Yes. Nash Windrider was a young Imperial officer who was onboard the *Devastator*, Vader's flagship, when Alderaan was destroyed. He rationalized it as a sacrifice for the Greater Good of the Galaxy and blamed the Rebel Alliance for forcing the Empire to destroy Alderaan as a show of force. He managed to survive until after the Battle of Jakku, and became one of the first admirals of the First Order.
