Task Force Serpent

From BattleTechWiki

Task Force Serpent was a multi-unit task force tasked with executing a secret military operation commissioned by the newly formed SLDF under the aegis of Marshal Morgan Hasek-Davion. Task Force Serpent's goal was to sneak back to the Clan Smoke Jaguar homeworld of Huntress and destroy it. The mission ran concurrent to Operation Bulldog - an operation whose goal was to drive the Smoke Jaguars from the worlds they occupied in the Inner Sphere. Although Morgan Hasek-Davion died en route, Ariana Winston of the Eridani Light Horse succeeded him and completed the mission. She too, however, was killed in her 'Mech, a Cyclops, during the battle for Huntress, homeworld of the Smoke Jaguars.
