History
Marcus Radatz was an officer in the Free Worlds League Military during the late thirtieth and early thirty-first centuries. In 3018 Radatz was the commanding officer of the Perth River Strike Battalion, the third battalion of the First Marik Militia when the battalion took part in a famous battle, the Battle of Skada Ravine.[1]
The Battle of Skada Ravine took place on Megrez, one of the planets on the border between the Free Worlds League and the Lyran Commonwealth. Megrez was a routine garrison assignment for the First, up until the planet was subject to a major assault by the Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces. Radatz's actions during the battle earned him membership of the Order of the Silver Hand; it also made a hero of Shanna del Ray, one of the officers in the Perth River Strike Battalion, who would go on to succeed Radatz as commander of the Third.[1]
