In 2414, Draconis Combine forces under command of Parker Kurita captured the world of St. John during Archon Katherine Steiner's wedding celebration to the Duke of Fatima, Deven Reynolds. The high importance of St. John to the Commonwealth forced the LCAF to undertake a major counterattack, led by Duke Reynolds. When the offensive failed miserably, lower-ranking government officials started investigations into leadership competency levels.[1][2]
In 2415 Duke Reynold's tank is destroyed in an overwhelming missile barrage during another failed attempt to retake St. John.[2][3]
In 2417 The Lyrans make a 3rd unsuccessful attempt to take St. John.[1][2]
In 2418 The LCAF make a 4th unsuccessful attempt to take St. John.[1][2]
