Coventry Campaign
The Turkina Keshik deployed to Coventry with the Jade Falcon forces, but did not participate as a unit. Several warriors from the Keshik were temporarily detached to the Harrier and Red-Tail ad-hoc units, which did see action against the Waco Rangers. Additionally, several Trinaries from Turkina Keshik were attached to Clusters full of younger warriors to help stiffen their resolve.[1]
Hegira War
In 3061 the Turkina Keshik fought alongside Khan Marthe Pryde against Steel Viper-forces on several planets in their shared occupation zone.
Officers
As of 3061 the commanding officer was Khan Marthe Pryde. Due to the many demands on the Khan's schedule however, the Keshik is normally overseen by the unit's XO, often a Star Colonel who is being prepared to command a Galaxy. In 3062 the unit's XO was Star Colonel Quillic Mattlov.[1]
Tactics
Hold rigidly to Zellbrigen. Specialize in the Nathaculor.
Composition
Unlike many Clan Keshiks, the Turkina Keshik is always a Cluster in size. This allows them greater tactical flexibility and allows the Khan to dispatch units as needed. Only Trueborn warriors are allowed in Turkina Keshik.[1]

Notes
