Personal History
Parker LaBelle joined the Waco Rangers Mercenary group sometime prior to 3058. He participated in the Battle of Coventry (3058), in the lance lead by lieutenant Manny Totske, in Leonard McCarthy's company, along with Hector Shirotan and Ariadne Sherbow.[1]
The 21 April, when the Rangers and Crazy Eights led a flank attack against the Dalles, the Clan Jade Falcon warriors were waiting them. McCarthy's company formed the regiment's right flank. McCarthy's arrogance and dismissal of the Lyran scout leader Caradoc Trevena led them fall into a Falcon ambush, and the clan forces fell over them.[2]
Ariadne was killed in seconds, but Parker didn't survive much longer: a Falcon Masakari shoot him his four PPC. The Alpha Strike made blown his ammunition, kiling him instantly.[3]
At the end, only Manny survived of his lance. He managed to escape, but traumathized. His men's loss, and the refusal of McCarthyto even admit his mistakes moved him to abandon the Rangers.[4]
In 3090, a picture remembering him and his lance mates was hung into the Memory Wall of the Cracked Canopy MechWarrior's bar on Solaris VII.[5]
Physical description
Parker was described as a man taller than Manny and thin, with a lean face and thinning brown hair.[6]
