The Jade Falcon [[saKhan]] has no Keshik, though the Khan may loan his/her unit to the saKhan. ==History== ===Operation REVIVAL=== {{main|Operation REVIVAL}} One notable combat action for the Turkina Keshik was on [[Von Strang's World]]; the Turkina Keshik and the [[Jade Falcon Guards (Clan Jade Falcon)|Falcon Guards]] were reconfigured with [[Arrow IV]] launchers and vaporized the fortress of the planet's dictator. ====Wave One==== * [[Bone-Norman]] * [[Here]] * [[Toland]] ====Wave Two==== * [[Apollo (planet)|Apollo]] ====Wave Three==== * [[Hot Springs]] ====Wave Four==== * [[Alyina]] * [[Baker 3]] * [[Sudeten]] ===Tukayyid=== {{main|Battle of Tukayyid (3052)}} {{sectionstub}} ===Refusal War=== {{main|Refusal War}} {{sectionstub}} ===Coventry Campaign=== The Turkina Keshik was deployed to [[Coventry]] with Jade Falcon forces, but did not participate as a unit. Several warriors from the Keshik were temporarily detached to the Harrier and Red-Tail ad hoc units, which did see action against the [[Waco Rangers]]. Additionally, several [[Trinary|Trinaries]] from Turkina Keshik were attached to [[Cluster]]s full of younger warriors to help stiffen their resolve.<ref name="er6256"/> ===Hegira War=== In [[3061]] the Turkina Keshik fought alongside Khan [[Marthe Pryde]] against [[Clan Steel Viper|Steel Viper]] forces on several planets in their shared Occupation Zone. ===Dark Ages=== In March 3150, the Turkina Keshik was on [[Skye]] along with the 124th Falcon Striker Cluster when three front-line Clusters from [[Clan Wolf]]'s [[Beta Galaxy (Clan Wolf)|Beta Galaxy]] dropped on the planet. Turkina Keshik thought [[Alaric Ward]] was leading the Wolf forces and wanted the honor of capturing or killing him. Turkina Keshik poured heavy fire into the Wolves' 19th Striker Cluster and even engaged them at close range. As soon as they were committed, the Ninth Wolf Guard Striker Cluster slammed into the Keshik from behind. The warriors of Turkina Keshik were forced to retreat, and eventually this became a rout. The survivors of the Keshik and 124th Falcon Striker Cluster withdrew from Skye on March 12, 3150<ref>''Shattered Fortress'', p. 84</ref> ==Officers== {| class="wikitable" |- ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Rank ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Name ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Command |- ! colspan="4" style="background: #efefef;" | Commanding Officers of the Turkina Keshik |- | [[Khan]] || [[Yvonne Hazen]] || ???? – [[3020]]<ref name=JFsb19>''Jade Falcon Sourcebook'', p. 19</ref> |- | [[Star Colonel]] || [[Elias Crichell]] || 3020<ref name=JFsb19/> |- | Star Colonel || [[Vandervahn Chistu]] || [[3053]]<ref name=JFsb48>''Jade Falcon Sourcebook'', p. 48</ref> |- | Khan || [[Marthe Pryde]] || [[3061]] – [[3062]]<ref name="er6256"/> |- |} ===Notes=== * Due to the many demands on Khan Marthe Pryde's time, the Keshik was normally overseen by the unit's XO, often a [[Star Colonel]] who was prepared to command a [[Galaxy]].
