Captain Anthony "Beaver" Yarborough was the commander of the Beaver's Reavers, a company of the Seventh Crucis Lancers, as of 2766.[1]

History

In February 2766 Yarborough and his company, due to being misidentified while chasing bandit raiders under radio silence on Mirach, were accidently engaged by Terran Hegemony Baroness Jade Sandowski and her personal unit the Jade's Rangers.

In the engagement the better experienced and equipped Rangers defeated the Lancers, with Sandowski killing Yarborough with a PPC shot to the cockpit of his RFL-3N Rifleman. The accidental conflict caused larger disputes between the two sides for months afterwards.[1]

BattleMech

Yarborough piloted a RFL-3N Rifleman BattleMech.[1]

Notes

  • The Seventh Crucis Lancers were officially not formed until 2784, from a Star League Defense Force unit which did not join Kerensky's Exodus.[2] It therefore is unclear if the name of the unit recorded as participating in this earlier engagement as the Seventh Crucis Lancers is incorrect, or if it is an predecessor unit of the same name.
