Raoul Barrett was second commander of the mercenary unit Barrett's Fusiliers.

History[edit]

By 3024 Raoul was a Lance Commander in his fathers mercenary unit.[2]

Raoul's father died in 3035, while the Fusiliers were in service to the Free Worlds League, and Raoul went on to command the Fusiliers in his father's place.[1]

Although the relationship between the League and the Fusiliers had begun to wane by the time Thomas Marik launched Operation GUERRERO, Raul and the Fusiliers still took part in the operation. The Fusiliers would fight on Shuen Wan before receiving orders to support the Capellan Confederation forces also engaged in GUERRERO and were well treated by the Capellans, in part due to the professionalism the Fusiliers displayed when Raoul Barrett died[1] and his son Nikita assumed command of the Fusiliers, proving himself in combat on Old Kentucky.[1]

Notes[edit]

  • ^ Field Manual: Mercenaries, Revised lists Raul Barrett as the commanding officer of Barrett's Fusiliers "Since his fathers death in 3035".[1] The short story And a Health to the Widow indicates that Alonzo Barrett only has a single son named Raoul Barrett in 3024.[2] Whilst Alonzo is not directly named as the father of Raul, context indicates that Raul and Raoul are intended to be the same character. This article takes up this assumption and uses the name from the more recent source as the canon name.
