Jinders Green-Davion was a Leutnant-General in the AFFC forces.

History[edit]

As one of the commanding officers of the Twenty-sixth Lyran Guards with the rank of Leftenant General.

While the unit was stationed on Kobe, the Guards had little time to prepare before Clan Wolf's Beta Galaxy arrived in December, commanded by Khan Garth Radick. The Twenty-sixth Guards were supported by the 1st and 2nd Kobe Mechanized Brigades, but these were green militia troops, with little hope of slowing down the Clans. In the first clash at Ash Valley, the Arctic Wolves repeated the tactic that Alpha had used against the Guards on Tamar, deploying Elementals to slip behind enemy lines and seek out the Lyran command. The elite Clan infantry severely injured Leutnant-General Joy Corelli, and knocked her into a coma. Her replacement as acting commander, Leftenant General Jinders Green-Davion managed to stabilize the situation, and there were further battles at New Pompeii and Cinder Bay. The Guards were ultimately too damaged to hold Kobe, and they retreated to Thun.[1]

In December 3051 Thun was invaded by Clan Wolf as part of the Fifth Wave of Operation Revival. Both Beta Galaxy and the Twenty-sixth Lyran Guards had faced each other earlier that month on Kobe, from which the Guards had fled to recover after being defeated. Unfortunately for the Guards, Beta Galaxy was hot on their heels, and acting CO Leftenant General Jinders Green-Davion was forced to deploy the surviving Guards to defend the city of Logan Delta against the invaders. This setup did have the advantage that the general's reserves would be able to react swiftly to attacks, and the Guards' defensive lines held at Rewer's Regret and Jagger Bay; Jinders was also lucky to avoid Headhunter units deployed by saKhan Garth Radick. Impatient to defeat the Guards, saKhan Garth Radick personally led his Alpha Command Star in a daring low-level combat drop into Logan Delta itself, disrupting the Guards and forcing them to flee off-world.[2]

In October 3062, Corelli finally passed away, and Jinders Green-Davion was allowed to take command with the rank of Leutnant-General. Green-Davion had reorganized the rebuilt and well-armed Twenty-sixth, turning the third battalion into a highly-mobile crack formation composed primarily of fast and jump-capable 'Mechs. A battalion of jump-capable battle armor was attached to the Guards' 270th F-C Jump Infantry regiment, and successfully began training in the same headhunter tactics the Wolves had used against the Twenty-sixth during the Clan Invasion. This and other factors, such as being issued several OmniMechs, helped forge the Guards into one of the Alliance's core units.[3][4] As November 3062, the Guards remained on Port Moseby.[5]

He sided with the Loyalist during the FedCom Civil War.[6]
