History[edit]
In 3025, Smith was a MechWarrior within the Waco Rangers' Sanchuie's Scout Lance, Noble's Headquarters Company of the First Battalion (Noble's Assault Battalion).[1]
In September 3032, while still a MechWarrior in Sanchuie's Scout Lance, Smith participated in the fighting between the Waco Rangers and Snord's Irregulars on Nockatunga. Smith was part of a group of Rangers 'Mechs, including Colonel Wayne Waco, which were trapped by the Irregulars in the hills twelve kilometers from the city of Thule. The Rangers were defeated by the Irregulars in the ensuing battle, with Cranston Snord disabling Colonel Waco's 'Mech, though choosing to spare his life.[2]
BattleMech[edit]
Smith was known to have pilot a Locust BattleMech.[1][2]
