Benjamin Sandoval was a Late thirtieth century Federated Suns' Duke of Robinson and Field Marshal of the Draconis March.

History

The Duke was strict disciplinarian and moralist, who was harsh on his sons. His youngest son, Aaron, ran away after he turned sixteen. The years after Aaron had disappeared was a difficult period for the Duke, as his eldest sons died in a DropShip accident, leaving him without an heir. Benjamin tried in vain to search for his young son.[1]

By chance in 2982, news media report covered the events of Capellan invasion of Rio. In a holovid program, the highlights of the battle included the heroic stand of a tank against a Capellan Marauder. The Master Sergeant in command of the tank strongly resembled his son, Aaron. Using his resources, Benjamin Sandoval soon discovered the Tank Sergeant was indeed his son, and he had been seriously injured saving woman he loved. He soon brought him back to Robinson along with his lover, Jessica Danforth.

After his son awoke from his coma, Benjamin and Aaron patched up their differences. Aaron and Jessica were soon were married.

Death

Shortly after the birth of his first grandson James in 2994, Benjamin passed away.[1]
