Hello! ID 84795 again!
 Just wanted to share this fantastic photo taken by the awesome Chiara Santaterra! Here it's my Transport Security Officer

That would probably be the easiest solution.

Well, here is what I found out about the EA Battlefront 2 Officer. He wears a helmet and armor on most maps. The exceptions are the Bespin and Death Star 2 map. The uniform is grey and it is unique. There are quite a few differences to the black Death Star Trooper and the olive Officer of EA battlefront 1. In EA BF1 the officers looked very similar to the ones in the OT. The only difference that I could see was that there is a seam going down the center of the back.
 
The officer in EA BF2 has no seam on the yoke under the collar. The collar overlaps instead of having a modesty panel. The rank looks like it could hold 3 blue and 3 red tiles but only has 2 of each which creates extra space. There are no code cylinders in the code cylinder pockets. There is a seam down the back. The sleaves seam to be split differently than on the OT tunics. One seam is on the back the way it was in the OT. The second seam is not under the sleave it looks more like it is toward the front. I think I saw something like that in Rogue One. The belt has three extra holes. The disk on the belt buckle and the hat are a little different than the OT but I am not sure if that was intentional or not. The Chicago screw on the belt looks like it has some extra lines on it. The jodhpurs and boots look similar to the ones the First Order uses. There is seam right under the right edge of the yoke that goes from the top of the shoulder all the way down but it disappears at the waist.
 
I did not post screencaps of the officer wearing the helmet and armor because there are already some on the second page of this thread. I have uploaded many detail screencaps of the officer on the second Death Star, Tatooine (Mos Eisley) and Bespin to my google drive. Here is the link.

Edit: All the screencaps are from the original game. I do not have mods in any of my Xbox One games.

I think there are more differences than just the vertical seam on the back. Unfortunately, I am not an expert of the officer costume and still have to research and think a little bit on the matter. Here are some screencaps that I took from my Xbox one game. The screencaps are a little bit dark. I will try to get some in-game screencaps from the officer with armor and helmet on Tatooine or Yavin 4. Those should be lighter.
 
As far as I remember, the officer only does not wear the helmet and armor on the Death Star 2 map. I will check that as soon as I have some time to play the game again.

I don't say it's perfect, but it could be a start and some work be taken off you.

Congratulations, Mark.

This CRL is based on my analysis of screen caps of ANH and my  research about officers tunics of the Russian Imperial Army. The book Star Wars Costumes: The Original Trilogy states on page 21 that those uniforms were used in ANH.
 
Links to my research:
 
This is a work in progress because I am still not a 100 percent sure which version of the tunic was used for the ISBs in ANH. I hope that some people will add their knowledge to the process. Changes to the old ISB CRL are in green. I also took out the information about the Rogue One version of the ISB tunic. Everything that is not visible in the movie but has to be there can be found in level 3.

Now that you mention it, I kind of remember reading about it. I would have preferred a separate CRL at the time but did not say anything because I was only a 501st member and not an IOC member yet and thought that my opinion would not count anyway. Perhaps now we can use your R1 ISB CRL proposal and make two separate ISB CRLs.
