The command wasn't perhaps the honor it might have seemed; the Fourth's personnel were largely a mix of raw Academy cadets and malcontents and misfits that [[Duncan Marik]] wanted to be rid of. Marik also loathed Cherenkov, and was horrified when the newly-raised unit chose to take up the regimental number of the Fourth, a unit which had been lost while launching a heroic attempt to lift the siege on [[Berenson]] in [[2840]].<ref name="HM(TFWL)p92"/>

When appointed to command the Fourth Cherenkov was a veteran ''[[Archer]]'' pilot, known for causing mayhem on the battlefield. He was also a devotee of the study of medicine - an interest he furthered by dissecting dead opponents on the battlefield. This practice made Cherenkov distinctly unpopular, and while his tactical competence and piloting skills were never in doubt, as of [[3025]] it was uncertain whether his "personality quirks" to become an effective leader.<ref name="HM(TFWL)p92"/>

Eventually he ran afoul of [[Thomas Marik]], who didn't care about Cherenkov's "medical degrees". He later suffered the loss of all his limbs in a serious accident and was fitted with four bionic limbs. The [[LCCC]] forced him out of service. The last time Vernon was seen he was on [[Gibson]] assisting the [[Word of Blake]] in setting up their colony.<ref>''Recognition Guide: ilClan, vol. 10'', p. 8</ref>
