Alfred Vaughn was the commanding officer of the Royal New Capetown Training Battalion as of 3056.[2]

History[edit]

Kommandant Vaughn, serving with the Royal New Capetown Training Battalion, was stationed on New Capetown in 3062. Formerly the commander of the Twycross TMM's artillery battery, Vaughn lost an arm during the Clan Invasion and spent months being rehabilitated before returning to active duty. Unfortunately, Vaughn was denied placement in a combat unit and was instead assigned to instruct at the Royal New Capetown Military Academy, becoming commander of its training battalion in 3056. While Vaughn at first resented his assignment and hungered for revenge, he eventually realized his best vengeance would in creating an entire generation of warriors eager and able to take down the Clans. Politically, Vaughn supported neither Katherine Steiner-Davion or her brother victor, as he saw the former as a political opportunist incapable of supporting her people and the latter as having made a critical mistake by destroying Clan Smoke Jaguar instead of Clan Jade Falcon. While this generated friction between Vaughn and the pro-Katherine commander of the Academy, he was careful not to do anything to justify his replacement.[2]

After the Federated Commonwealth Civil War, Vaughn remained with the New Capetown Training Battalion by 3067.[3] Following the Jihad, now-Colonel Vaughn still lead the Battalion as of 3085.[1]
