Nancy Laws was a helicopter pilot and commander of the Laws Flight mercenary unit as of 3021.[1]

History[edit]

Laws was the commander of Laws Flight in 3021, when they defended Kimball VI against a raid by Wilson's Hussars (who were then working for Redjack Ryan). In this action, Laws Flight harassed the lighter elements of the raiding force and lured them into Serval Canyon, a box canyon where infantry ambushed the attackers with man-portable short-range missile launchers and inferno missiles.[2] The raiders retreated, leaving three crippled 'Mechs behind.[1]

Laws was as surprised as any by her units easy victory, but she acted as if it were an inevitable result of her leadership and tactical skill

After that, the unit was moved to Liezen once the planet had been recaptured by the LCAF, where they assisted in counterinsurgency operations in the mountains. During those years the unit did little of note, causing it to suffer from morale issues and an increasing lack of operational readiness. Eventually, only four Warriors were left operational.[1]

Vehicle[edit]

Laws was known to pilot a Warrior attack helicopter.[1]
