Day 8 Minifig's identification is a little tricky. For some reason,
Bricklink.com lists Day 8 Minifig as
Dack Ralter (alternately spelled Dak Ralter--not sure which is right). However, compared to all the other non-advent-calendar minifigs Lego has produced, the Day 8 Minifig looks most like Zev Senesca. Here are two pages from an awesome book called
Lego Star Wars Character Encyclopedia (
Amazon page) to compare the two (convenient that Zev and Dak are on the same spread, eh?):
The only difference between Day 8 Minifig and Zev Senesca is that Day 8 Minifig only gets a plain white helmet--no cool markings. Thus I conclude that Day 8 Minifig is Zev Senesca with a bleached-out helmet.
Zev Senesca was the pilot who, during Episode V, located Luke and Han after they spent a frigid night outside the rebel base on Hoth. Zev died not long thereafter, during the battle with the Empire forces.

I used the same book to find Zev. Nice little guide.
