Carlos Binetti was a Clan Jade Falcon trueborn.
History[edit]
On the 29th of September 3071, a major Clan Ice Hellion supply convoy under the overall command of Star Captain Fordham was at the Deep Periphery marker known as Falcon's Beacon when the Whirlwind-class destroyer CJF Emerald Tornado jumped in-system. The convoy had no WarShip escort - Fordham was aboard the Star Lord-class JumpShip CIH Admiral Garrett, and the close air patrol fighters were still aboard their ships when the Falcons arrived. Star Admiral Carlos Binetti, the commanding officer of the Emerald Tornado, was as surprised as Fordham - Falcon's Beacon was a Watch outpost, with little expected to be in-system other than some warehouses, support personnel, and perhaps a Star of warriors. Despite his surprise, Binetti ordered the Captain of the Emerald Tornado, Star Captain Charlotte van Jankmon, to issue a batchall. Fordham surrendered, rather than provoke the needless deaths of those under his command. The loss of the convoy was a huge blow to the Ice Hellion forces in the Inner Sphere.[1]
Jade Falcon saKhan Samantha Clees received word of the capture of the Ice Hellion convoy from Star Admiral Binetti on the 2nd of October while she and her flagship, the Black Lion-class battlecruiser CJF Jade Aerie, on the 2nd of October, while she and her forces were in the Wotan system. Binetti confirmed that enough matériel to refit two front-line Galaxies had been seized.[2]
