Unit Description
The McKinnon's Company better known as The Fox's Teeth is a Special Operations BattleMech Company, deployed as the First Company, First Battalion, 7th Crucis Lancers. It was originally a SLDF combat unit of the 1st Star League, however the unit defected to House Davion at breakup of the League.
History
Founding
The Fox Company, 2nd Battalion, 142nd Battle Regiment, 251st BattleMech Division under command of Captain Kieran McKinnon refused to follow General Kerensky into exile and choose instead to join the AFFS in return for titles and lands on Kestrel. Together with other independent commands they were formed into the 7th Crucis Lancers.
The Succession Wars
The first assignment for the 7th Crucis Lancers and McKinnon's Company was the defense of Kentares IV against the DCMS at the beginning of the First Succession War where they fought a guerrilla war until rescued by a Davion taskforce. Before their retraction an infantryman attached to McKinnon's Company shot Coordinator Minoru Kurita leading to the infamous Kentares Massacre.
After the years at the Combine front the company served as an independent command at the Periphery and Capellan boarders, participated in raids on Sian and St. Ives and earned themselves the name McKinnon's Raiders.
In 3013, while the company was rebuilding on New Avalon, Ross McKinnon foiled a plot to assassinate Prince Hanse Davion. As reward for their loyalty the Raiders earned themselves the nickname "The Fox Teeth".
