History[edit]

Prior to Operation BULLDOG[edit]

In 3059, Tai-sa George Gibson was the Executive Officer of the 11th Alshain Avengers when it was stationed on Kiesen.[2][4]

During Operation BULLDOG[edit]

In August 3059, George Gibson was still with the 11th Alshain Avengers and was stationed on Meinacos when Clan Smoke Jaguar's 267th Battle Cluster attacked in response to the initial waves of Operation BULLDOG. During the fighting, the 11th Alshain was able to lure two Stars away from the main group. The 1st Canopian Cuirassiers moved in to cut off the Clan's retreat and prepared to bombard the Smoke Jaguar's 'Mechs via artillery, but George and seven other members of the 11th refused to leave and charged into the Clan machines. All eight Combine warriors fell in battle, but took out an entire Star of Jaguar OmniMechs in the process before the Canopians moved in and destroyed the rest of the Jaguar units.[5][1]

George Gibson piloted a Sunder OmniMech.[3]
