As an 18-year-old [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarrior]] [[cadet]] at the [[Pacifica Training School]], he recreated the [[Crescent Hawks]] and took command of the unit to fend off a [[Draconis Combine]] attack on [[Chara III]] in [[3028]]. Subsequently, he was promoted to [[Lieutenant]] and given the unit as his own by [[Katrina Steiner]]. He led the unit at least up to the [[Battle of Luthien (3052)|Battle of Luthien]] in late [[3051]], where he led the defense, first of part of the front line, later of the capital city itself. He flew over the battlefield several times, one landing beside [[Takashi Kurita]]. The irony to be fighting beside Kuritans, his family's traditional enemies, wasn't lost to him... but when Takashi respectfully bowed to him, Jason was so impressed than he abandoned all his hate to the Kuritans, returned the gesture and fought at his side. − Jason, as a handful of Hawks, survived the battle, but his LAM didn't. Once again in [[Arc-Royal]], [[Morgan Kell]] gifted him a new 'Mech, and convinced him to remain, as the Hawks, as part of the Hounds, but he, as the Hawks, were relieved of active duty and placed in charge of training a new generation of MechWarriors on anti-Clan tactics.
