Kinsley Crossburns was the commanding officer of the Kathil Operational Area's Alcyone PDZ as of 3050.[2]

History[edit]

Marshal Crossburns, serving under Marshal Robert Steadman, was executive officer of the Alcyone PDZ in 3025. Simultaneously, Crossburns was commanding officer of the Fifth Davion Guards and was stationed on Lee.[3] By 3050, now-Hauptmann-General Crossburns was commanding officer of the Alcyone PDZ but was no longer commander of the Fifth Davion Guards.[2]

Crossburns was still commander of the Alcyone PDZ when the Federated Commonwealth Civil War began in late 3062 and was present as tensions between Katherine Steiner-Davion and Victor Steiner-Davion forces on Alcyone grew to a boiling point. During an inspection of one of Alcyone's key logistics facilities on 7 December, Crossburns was detained by pro-Katherine military police and was subsequently killed in the crossfire when pro-Victor forces recognized and attempted to liberate him. While Crossburns' second in command was arrested for instigating his death, open conflict on Alcyone began before the close of the month.[1]
