Keela Dahoona was the commanding officer of the First Battalion of MacGregor's Armored Scouts during the Fourth Succession War.[1]
History[edit]
Major Dahoona, serving with the First Battalion of MacGregor's Armored Scouts, was assigned to defend the port city of Bulun during the Stepember 3028 Battle of Tikonov. Facing off against the elite Seventh Crucis Lancers, Dahoona's battalion came under a multi-directional assault on 27 September and moved to engage numerous Lancers forces simultaneously. Unfortunately, while the majority of Dahoona's BattleMechs and conventional forces were occupied fighting what seemed to be the Lancers' major offensive, a team of Lancers combat engineers stealthily planted demolition charges that knocked out much of the defenses along Bulun's coastal approach. Both the coastal approach and the city's spaceport were soon taken by the prepared Lancers and Dahoona's Scouts had to engage in fierce urban combat in order to resist the Davion advance.[1]
Although the Scouts knew Bulun well and took advantage of its layout to slow the Lancers' progress, Dahoona and her command lance were soon pinned down in a city park. When the Lancers' Marshal Robert Steadman and his own command company arrived to order her surrender, Dahoona rejected the opportunity and ordered her lancemates to kill the enemy commander. This effort ultimately failed and both Dahoona and her lance were destroyed, with the remnants of the First Battalion and their Tikonov allies being similarly destroyed or disarmed by the end of the week.[1]
