− Xander Barajas joined the Armed Forces of the Federated Commonwealth sometime prior to [[Operation GUERRERO]], and served in that conflict with distinction. His fighting prowess earned him an assignment to the [[Eighth FedCom RCT]], where by [[3062]], he had been promoted to the commander of Stalker Lance in the Third Battalion. Throughout his career he had developed a reputation for being bloodthirsty and reckless, often disregarding his own safety and that of his unit in order to secure a kill.<ref name=FPc7/> He was most noteworthy for firing the first shot in the Federated Commonwealth Civil War on Kathil, obliterating a group of Kathil CMM infantry who was attempting to infiltrate the Eighth FedCom's perimeter to arrest their officers.<ref name=FPc9>''Flashpoint'', Chapter 9</ref> He fought in the Howell River Valley near Daytin and his headlong charge into the Allied flank secured a victory for the Loyalists there.<ref name=FPc12>''Flashpoint'', Chapter 12</ref> + By [[3062]], Barajas was the commander of Stalker Lance in the Third Battalion of the [[Eighth FedCom RCT]], where he had developed a reputation for being bloodthirsty and reckless.<ref name=FPc7/> He was most noteworthy for firing the first shot in the Federated Commonwealth Civil War on Kathil, obliterating a group of Kathil CMM infantry who was attempting to infiltrate the Eighth FedCom's perimeter to arrest their officers.

− During the battle for the Kay Bume munitions plant in Stihl, Barajas ignored defending the factory in order to pursue a personal vendetta against the Kathil CMM's [[Sergeant Major]] [[Amanda Black]].

− At the battle for the Kearny-Fuchida Yare Industries microwave power relay on 7 December, 3062, Barajas re-encountered his nemesis. Again ignoring his objective, he pursued Amanda Black into a minefield, firing on the lance members who attempted to engage her and destroying one of their 'Mechs. As he charged headlong at her, a combination of his disregard for his 'Mech's overwhelming heat levels and Black's concentrated fire caused his reactor to overload, killing him instantly.<ref name=FPc28/> + At the battle for the Kearny-Fuchida Yare Industries microwave power relay on 7 December, 3062, Barajas re-encountered his nemesis.
