==Biography==
Unlike his father, Carl believed that the only thing a Davion should do was pilot a 'Mech. He inherited [[Operation PENDRAGON]], an ongoing and successful offensive against the [[Draconis Combine]] who were facing severe supply issues, and the [[AFFS]] also held the initiative against the [[Capellan Confederation]]. It was expected that Carl would take over the guidance of the military from his aging great-uncle Prime Marshal [[Peter Davion (29th c.)|Peter Davion]] and before long he was personally involved in fighting in the [[Draconis March]].<ref name=FS:80>''House Davion (The Federated Suns)'', p. 80</ref>

Carl Davion was killed in action after leading the first wave assault on [[David]]. With his forces contained and isolated, the Prince led a massive frontal assault against no less than five Draconis Combine strongholds. Although he died, the attack was a success and David was eventually reclaimed by the Federated Suns.<ref name=FS:80 />
