'''Frank Paulson''', known as ''Flashpoint'', was a Top Twenty sensation fighter on [[Solaris VII]] within the Medium 'Mech Class.<ref name="JHS3072">''Jihad Hot Spots: 3072'', P. 33 ''HANG TOGETHER OR HANG SEPARATELY''</ref>

==History==
During the [[Word of Blake]] invasion he fought alone for most of the time. His best known action was fighting alone against three mechs (a ''[[Blue Flame]]'', a ''[[Lightray]]'' and a ''[[Gurkha]]''). With skill and guts he crippled the ''Gurkha'' and destroyed the ''Blue Flame'', though his 'Mech was severely damaged with a left arm blown off and ending also without autocannon ammunition. It was considered an amazing accomplishment for a lone warrior, though he was also criticized for his engagement lacking teamwork, which could have increased the size of the victory. <ref name="JHS3072"></ref>
