Thanom Hammerskjold a Social General from the Lyran Commonwealth.
History[edit]
He was the was the commanding officer of the 3rd Donegal Guards from at least 3054[1] to 3058.[2]
The Third Donegal Guards were stationed on Styk until Operation Guerrero when the CCAF's Warrior House Imarra managed to retake the world for the Capellan Confederation in 3057.[3]
Thanom Hammerskjold's questionable plan relied on overpowering the Liao unit with superior numbers, only for the Warrior House troops to consistently outmaneuver and lure the heavier RCT in endless ambushes, forcing to Third to overextend their forces and allowing the Imarra troops to inflict significant losses. While more capable members of the units command staff began to take over and adapted their tactics to counter the Capellans, Archon Katherine Steiner-Davion's succession of the Lyran Alliance and recall of Lyran units prompted the Third to return home.[3]
He was sacked after the Styk debacle.[4][3]
By 3067 he was made the Margrave of Arc-Royal Theater after a brief tenure by Morgan Kell.[5] By 3085 he was the Margrave of Cavanaugh Theater.[6]
