Jason Smith was a combat vehicle commander, with the Second Oriente Hussars, as of 2366.[1]

History[edit]

Smith was a member of First Company, First Battalion, of the Second Oriente Hussars in the twenty-fourth century. In this role Smith participated in the defense of Lopez, against a 2366 invasion by the Northwind Highlanders' First Kearny Highlanders on behalf of the Capellan Confederation, during the First Andurien War. Surprising the Highlanders with their Manticores tanks equipped the then new PPC, the Hussars were able to inflict heavy losses on the Highlanders after their initial landing, leading the Highlanders to launch a deep raid on the Hussars supply depots in an attempt to even the score.

The depots were guarded by elements of the Hussars, including Smith's Fire Lance within First Company, First Battalion. The Highlanders were however able to destroy the depots, allowing the First Kearny to prevail in the battle for the world, despite the superior equipment of the Hussars.[1]

Vehicle[edit]

Smith was known to have commanded a Manticore heavy tank.[1]
