History
McShane enlisted into the AFFS about the year 3099, serving under Harrison Davion service. After about four decades, until he ended commanding the Federated Suns garrison on Marlowe's Rift, in the Draconis Reach, with the rank of Colonel. There, he led the Militia effectively, defending the planet against Draconis Combine raids, and even launched some to other worlds with his forces, when he was able to.[2]
On 14 February 3139, he led his militia to defend the planet against what he believed to be another kuritan raid. He led his forces to a narrow pass, where he made his men to build defenses. The attackers, however, were much more powerfuls than expected. After suffering heavy losses, McShane ordered his men to retreat to defend the capital, while he stayed behind to cover their retreat. He fought a duel against a GuillotineIIC, but was unable to win. All his men were downed, and his 'Mech blowned. He managed to eject, but was captured. Then he uncovered than the attackers were Wolf's Dragoons, contracted by the Combine to invade the Reach.[3]
Two days after being captured, the Dragoons' convoy which carried him and other prisoners was attacked by a group of Militiamen and he losed consciousness. He awoke in a DropShip which was abandoning the planet. Despite the fact he didn't want to leave, finally accepted, though he swore to came back.[4]
On 22 March, McShane was on Wapakoneta, where he met the baron Marcus Palm, with a regiment of the March Militia. Palm was tasked to integrate the Reach into the Suyns by the Duke of Robinson. He asked him a report about the Battle of Marlowe's Rift (3139) and promoted to the rank of General bewfore assigning him the task of attempting to defend the Reach against the Combine's invasion.[1]
