Formerly an aeospace pilot for the Eridani Light Horse his personal aerofighter was rendered down to inoperability.  The sheer c-bill value to repair her made it unfeasible for him, not being a noble and having an easy cash supply line or extra assets, and as consolation he was given a Warrior VTOL.  Stripping her down to the bare bones he retro-fitted a laser and a pair of machineguns on her with an almost bare minimum of shells.  A far different beast that maintains the quick maneuverability of the Warrior she doubles her armour on the sides and rear and holds almost triple on the nose.  Someday he hopes to move back up to a proper vehicle but in the meantime he's left on hard times...but at least he's not dispossessed completely and there is hope even if it is slim.

Having been fitted into one of the new Stinger K5 LAM's and aquitted himself during the campaign on Hoff he was transfered with the bulk of the Eridani to New Avalon where his experience with the new controls would be invaluable to future ranks.  For the time being, he was with the 6th no longer.
