Marshal Ann Adelmana was the commander of the Davion Heavy Guards during the middle of the 31st century.[3]
History
Ann Adelmana began her career serving in the Fifth Syrtis Fusiliers, but was transferred out for having a disruptive, strongly pro-Davion attitude. She soon found herself serving in the Davion Heavy Guards and began working up the ranks to be given command of the unit by Hanse Davion himself after the former commander's retirement. Strangely for a commander of the Heavy Guards, Adelmana had no direct connection to House Davion before taking charge of the unit.[1]
As the Clan Invasion began, Adelmana and her guards were stationed on New Avalon in 3050.[3] Adelmana remained in command of the Heavy Guards by 3054 and was still stationed on New Avalon.[4] While her unit would miss the initial battles of the Invasion, Adelmana would be charged with forming a group of volunteers from the Davion Heavy Guards to provide a unit for Operation Bird Dog in March of 3059.[2]
Prior to the FedCom Civil War, Adelmana's political leanings meant that she and her troops were stationed on Galax by Archon Katherine Steiner-Davion in 3062 without assigned JumpShips. Thus stranded, Adelmana and her troops were mostly uninvolved with the Federated Commonwealth Civil War until Katherine-loyal Marshal of the Armies Jackson Davion visited Galax during the war's fourth wave. The meeting he had with Adelmana and armor commander Major General Jonathan Davion contributed to his eventual abandonment of Katherine's cause. Adelmana's Heavy Guards were ultimately rescued from their exile in time to fight for Victor Steiner-Davion on New Avalon, where they were almost entirely destroyed in the fighting for Avalon City.[1][5][6]
