History
The Clean Kill mercenary unit had a checkered past for many years. In 3062 the unit accepted a contract with the Calderon Protectorate in spite of having a contract with the Taurian Concordat. This dramatically reduced their Dragoons rating. Stationed on Althea's Choice the command received some of its first victories.[1]
However, in late 3067 the unit clashed with the 2nd Taurian Guard when Helen Naborn, one of Clean Kill's company commanders, ran her Charger through the mansion of the planetary governor while chasing bandits on Althea's Choice. Captain Naborn was arrested on manslaughter charges, and the Protectorate cancelled their contract with Clean Kill. Major Bullard turned to alcohol to solve his problems and was found dead of a drug overdose on 21 January 3068.
The four company commanders immediately declared themselves the new CO of the unit, leading to a brief "civil war" in the unit. When the smoke cleared, the unit had lost several vehicles and 'Mechs, but the technical staff was able to repair them. The tensions between officers that had plagued the unit were also dramatically reduced, making the unit far more effective. However the collateral damage they inflicted caused the Taurian Concordat to demand they leave Concordat space. Captain O'Reilly was able to defuse this situation by offering reparations to the government of Althea's Choice in return for a renewed contract. This led to the unit reinforcing Althea's Choice against raiders.[2]
Officer
Major Phormes Bullard was a leader with a colorful taste in clothing.
After the infighting ended in 3068, the unit's new commander was Major Shahna Richman, with Captain Kailynn O'Reilly as the executive officer.[2]
Tactics
The command uses every possible trick (long range bombardment with mass fire) regardless of civilian casualties. Close combat is another preferred tactic. They tend to use simple frontal attacks.
