History
Jon Geist was the son of Kommandant Nelson Geist, growing up on the planet Kooken's Pleasure Pit. Prior to the Clan Invasion, he married a young woman named Dorete, and had twins in 3049. At an unknown date, he enlisted in the Federated Commonwealth armed forces, joining the Tenth Lyran Guards.[2]
Death and Legacy
In 3052, the Guards landed on Teniente for a rescue mission to save Hohiro Kurita and his unit. The Clan Nova Cat forces were busy fighting ComGuard units during Operation SCORPION, and although the Guards were victorious, Jon was killed during the battle.[3]
Jon was survived by his father, wife, and twin sons. Nelson Geist died three years later, during the Red Corsair affair. Because Nelson had joined the Kell Hounds mercenary group before his death, Jon's widow and sons were entitled to survivors' benefits, and moved to Arc-Royal where the Hounds took care of them.[4]
BattleMechs
In his last battle, Jon piloted a Phoenix Hawk.[5]
