Palmer Yoshio was a Chu-sa in the Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery. From 3058 to 3062, he was the commander of Third Battalion, Eleventh Alshain Avengers.[1][2]

History[edit]

As of Coordinator Theodore Kurita's requested 3058 Field Manual review of the DCMS, Palmer Yoshino held the rank of Chu-sa in command of the Eleventh Alshain Avengers's Third Battalion, then stationed on Benjamin Military District world of Kiesen.[1][3]

Palmer Yoshio would continue to service as Chu-sa of the Eleventh's Third Battalion during the Avengers involvement in Operation BULLDOG, most notably taking part in the defense of Meinacos during the Clan Smoke Jaguar Counterattack. On their way to Marshdale, the Eleventh was diverted to assist the Eight Dieron Regulars, St. Ives Cheveau Legers and First Canopian Cuirassiers face the front-line 267th Battle Cluster. As the Eighth Dieron launched an offensive against Jaguar unit's flank, Yoshio and the rest of the Elventh Alsahin's officer core lured away two Stars of the Battle Cluster on 12 August 3059. Ordered to withdraw after the First Canopian cut off the Jaguars possibility of retreat before launching a artillery bombardment of the trapped Clan forces, Yoshio and the seven other officers of the Eleventh refused, ensuring the Jaguars remained pinned and taking down one full Star before they fell.[4]

While unconfirmed, it is almost certain that Yoshio perished with the rest of the Eleventh, when Clan Ghost Bear's Sigma and Omega Galaxies exterminated the unit.[5]

BattleMech[edit]

During the fighting on Tierra del Noche on Meinacos, Palmer Yoshino piloted a ON1-M Orion.[4]

Yoshio piloted a Bishamon at the beginning of Combine-Ghost Bear War in 3062.[2]

Notes[edit]

  • The Dragon Roars indicates all eight of the Eleventh Alshain Avengers' officers who fought on Meinacos died in battle against the 267th Battle Cluster, This fact is excluded from text above based on his later appearance during the Combine-Ghost Bear War years later in Path of Glory.[4]
