Daniel Minos was a notable VTOL pilot in the First Periphery Guard during the Dark Age Era.[1]
History[edit]
When the 3139 spring rains on Great Gorge led to widespread flooding of the New Stockton region and the destruction of tens of thousands of civilian's homes, Sergeant Minos accompanied the First Periphery Guard contingent dispatched to provide the world with humanitarian assistance. While Minos and the Guard's twenty other VTOL pilots performed rescue operations and delivered relief supplies, the absence of other combat vehicles and the disarray dealt to the planetary militia encouraged a pirate raid against Great Gorge's spaceport. Since the sole lance of BattleMechs accompanying the First Guard relief force were unable to react in time, Minos took charge and led a flight of four VTOLs in an attack against the pirates. By dropping shipping containers filled with explosives at high speeds directly atop the raiders' positions, the Guard VTOLs quickly achieved the element of surprise while simultaneously disabling the DropShip used to store the enemy's stolen goods. At the end of the raid, the pilots under Minos' command had dropped over one hundred tons of munitions using their transport aircraft, completely destroying the enemy DropShip and the majority of the pirates' BattleMechs.[1]
