History[edit]
Lohkamp was a tall, red-haired man, with a bushy unkempt mustache and a ready smile.
Marik Military Academy[edit]
Prior to 3037, Lohkamp was a well liked expert in air-to-air combat with 10 kills to his credit, who taught atmospheric flying at the Marik Military Academy. During this time however, he nursed secret political ambitions, believing his role as a Major at a flight school was beneath his abilities.
His goals in this direction were however forestalled, by his periodic recall to frontline combat duty, whenever House Marik required his skills.[1][2]
Duncan Marik[edit]
The attempt by Duncan Marik to become Captain-General finally brought Lohkamp's ambitions into the open, as he became an notable supporter of Duncan. He was however forced to flee the Free Worlds League when Thomas Marik returned from his apparent death and supplanted Duncan as Captain-General in 3037.[1][2]
Exile[edit]
While in exile, Lohkamp scratched out a living as a freelance mercenary, seeking to add to his by then 20 recorded kills.[1][2]
Aerospace Figther[edit]
Lohkamp was known to pilot a Riever aerospace fighter.[1][2]
