General Della al-Nahib was the commander of the 12th Vegan Rangers Mercenary unit from 3116 to at least 3147.[1][2][3][4]

History

Inheritance

The daughter of former 12th Vegan Rangers commanding officer General Miller al-Nahib, command passed to Della on his retirement in 3116, after which she transferred the unit's employment from the Federated Suns to the Marik-Stewart Commonwealth in search of better opportunities.

Vega Protectorate

Not generally seeing much action in the remnants of the Free Worlds League during their twenty year contract, Della and the Rangers later signed with Jacob Bannson in mid-3133. Under Bannson's orders, they were sent to Vega to assist in driving off a Draconis Combine invasion in 3136.[1] Arriving as a welcome surprise to the defending forces under the control of Galaxy Commander Isis Bekker-Florala on 1 December 3136, the Rangers took over combat operations from the beleaguered Vegan natives. Della announced that the Rangers would help fight for the freedom of their spiritual home world, thanks to the funds provided by Bannson.[5]

After accepting Bekker-Florala's offer of a new home base, Della and her Rangers assisted the Galaxy Commander in forming the Vega Protectorate. Della and the Twelfth Vegan Rangers remained on world for the next five years, ensuring that the Protectorate could stand on its own before accepting another long-term contract with the Federated Suns in 3141. During their stay, they repulsed an attack by the Fifth Sword of Light.[1]

Ulan Batar

Upon their return to Federated Suns territory in 3145, Della and the Rangers were assigned to a base on Ulan Batar, where they were forced to fight the First Liao Grenadiers for several months.[1][2]

Task Force Styx

Eventually managing to disengage from the Liao Grenadiers, the Rangers were assigned to be a part of Operation CERBERUS and the liberation of New Syrtis, with Task Force Styx. In December 3147 following the Davion landings on New Syrtis, Della was directed by Julian Davion to have her unit secure the Saso Statehouse, which was where Duchess Amanda Hasek had been executed by the Capellan occupiers.[3]
