Leftenant General Allastair Beaverbrook was the commander of the Valexa Capellan March Militia, with the Federated Suns, until his death in 3144.[1]

History[edit]

Beaverbrook commanded the Valexa CMM during the Capellan Confederation's Operation CELESTIAL REWARD, as part of which the First Liao Dragoons raided Valexa. In the course of this raid the Liao Dragoons were able to badly maul the Fourth Ceti Hussars, after they managed to drive between the Hussars and the Valexa CMM, and Beaverbrook refused to deploy his command to assist the Hussars. While Beaverbrook claimed he was prevented by coming to the Hussars aid by the Dragoons' artillery, later investigations suggested the Capellans had only minimal artillery support, in the form of a lance of Arrow IV-equipped Catapults.

Beaverbrook was killed shortly after the Liao Dragoons withdrew, by "an accidental discharge from a friendly PPC", in a suspected Fragging. In light of Beaverbrook's poor combat performance however, Davion High Command elected not to send an Adjutant General to investigate his death.[1]
