Rank Colonel[1]

Gary Metzger was the commanding officer of the Penobscot CTM as of 3062.[1]

History[edit]

Colonel Metzger, serving with the Penobscot CTM, was stationed on Penobscot in 3062. Metzger was one of the first graduates of the Pandora College of Military Sciences' BattleMech program, finishing with honors, and was selected for advanced officer training at the Nagelring. Metzger fought in both the War of 3039 and the Clan Invasion and was given control of the Penobscot CTM as a reflection of his rising star status. Metzger's failure to turn the miltia's fortunes around lead to his fall from grace, leaving him eager for a war that could kickstart his stalled career.[1]

During the Federated Commonwealth Civil War, Metzger would lead the Penobscot CTM in the battle for Cavanaugh II, although his militiamen were nearly wiped out in the fighting.[2] By 3067, Metzger was once more stationed on Penobscot with a CTM operating at only ten percent of its full strength.[3]
