History[edit]
Marcus Johnson was the commanding officer of the Blackhearts between 3059 and 3068[1][2]
Jihad[edit]
In November of 3068, the Blackhearts deployed on Wasat for training exercises. DropShips carrying Raymond's Armored Cavalry and the HeavyHell Raisers landed in the planetary capital of Wasat Prime. Duke Howard Long, the governor of Wasat, summoned Colonel Marcus Johnson to an urgent meeting. At the meeting, also attended by a Word of Blake Demi-Precentor, the Blackhearts were instructed to stand down or Raymond's ACR and the HeavyHell Raisers would be forced to attack them. Colonel Johnson refused, stating that the Blackhearts' contract with the LCCC did not allow the Governor or Blakists to alter their orders. An argument ensued, during which both Colonel Johnson and the Blakist were killed, but not before Johnson was able to relay the wiretapped conversation to his XO, Major Glen Stryker, who enacted Operation BLACK FURY: an emergency protocol in case of betrayal by an employer.
