After the battle he was subjected to court martial, stripped of his rank and assigned to the Black Widow Company.[1] He participated during the combat drop the Black Widow Company made to attack New Delos and capture Anton Marik[2], and was still in the unit in 3025.[1]
Since then, he has been wounded four times and twice lost his 'Mech. Over the years, his leadership skills have been found nonexistent.[1]
