Biography
Early Life
Born on the Lyran Commonwealth world of Gallery, Jerome Winson was a strong and intelligent youth. For these reasons he would be fast-tracked into SLDF officer training. His timing was fortuitous. The Star League had been fighting engagements throughout the Periphery for many years, putting them in great need of bright young officers.[1]
Star League Service
Fighting in the war against the Rim Worlds Republic, Jerome Winson would rise to the rank of Major, earning a post on General Aleksandr Kerensky's command staff. During the Liberation of Terra, he would be assigned to a unit with a mission of singular importance to the great General himself: the rescue of his wife, Katyusha Kerensky, and his two sons, Nicholas and Andery. Previously unknown to all but a few people in Kerensky's inner circle, the rescue of the Kerensky family from an Amaris occupied Moscow[5] would have long reaching consequences for all of the Inner Sphere. Because of his close association with General Kerensky, Winson would stay close to Nicholas and Andery, becoming something of a big brother to the boys as they adjusted to life after the Amaris Crisis.[1]
