Colonel Barclay, who in later years had nightmares about this battle, by [[3060]] while in the [[Clan Homeworlds]] dreamt that Umsont had died on Coventry to an [[A-Pod]] mounted on a Falcon ''[[Man O' War]]'' which had downed his 'Mech. This however was a false addition to the event added by her trauma, the swift destruction of the Clan 'Mech in reality, being warped in her imagination into the annihilation of Barclay's entire command company. This transference is notable as the pilot of the ''Man O' War'', [[Star Commander]] [[Kraig]], was her bondsman for a week until 16 June when ''[[hegira]]'' resulted in an exchange of prisoners.<ref name=SoWc18/><ref>''The Battle of Coventry'', pp. 52–53: "Charging the Light Horse"</ref><ref>''Malicious Intent'', ch. 42</ref>
