History
Markham was reputed to be fine though reckless officer, placing loose interpretations on her orders, and taking every opportunity to charge into battle.
As a member of Zeta Battalion's Heavy Lance of Garrett's Company, she participated in the Battle of Misery in 3028 as a Lieutenant, surviving where other more cautious officers did not, including her then commanding officer Captain Arthur Garrett.[1]
She was was later promoted to lead Baker Trinary before 3059, first as a Captain[2] and by 3067 as a Major.[3]
Her Trinary fought in the First Battle of Harlech in October 3067, being reduced to Company strength after that battle.[4] Subsequently her now Baker Company formed part of Taskforce Vengeance, the Dragoon's ill-fated strike at the Word of Blake on Mars, where she died with the majority of the remaining members of Zeta Battalion.

BattleMech
Markham was known to pilot a Marauder BattleMech early in her career around the time of the Battle of Misery[1], and later an Annihilator, including during her last engagement on Mars in 3067.[4]
