Churchill Francisco was an officer of the Lone Star Battalion during the conflict on Epsilon Eridani in 3067.[1]

History[edit]

In 3067 two mercenary units, his Lone Star Regiment and Redfield's Renegades, were battling on Epsilon Eridani when they made a significant discovery. The fighting near the Shamus Mountains unearthed an old Star League Defense Force depot hidden within the mountains. Still intact within the Depot was a battle-scarred Colossus-class DropShip. Both mercenary units immediately laid claim to the DropShip, and with neither willing to compromise a grueling combat was initiated that saw both units take heavy casualties. Ultimately, the Lone Star Regiment were the victors and recovered both the DropShip and the battlefield salvage as prizes.[2]

By the 21st of May with Colonel Sarah Redfield-Barnes wounded and Major Clyde Mustafa dead, killed during some of the skirmishes that had happened during the past two days, Captain Shu-shint Chou was the highest-ranking of the unit. When Lone Star Battalion forces led by Ranger-Lieutenant Churchill Francisco appeared, he offered a truce. When Francisco rebuffed his request for a ceasefire, Chou ordered his scout infantry to seal themselves in the SLDF depot using explosives and hold out against all aggressors until the Renegade reinforcements arrived. Shu-shint Chou led two lances against the two lances from the Lone Star Battalion.[3]
