Colonel Kenneth Ramaley was the commander of the Illician Lancers's 21st Illician Rangers Mercenary unit from at least 3145 to 3151.[1][2]
History
Ramaley, with the 21st Illician Rangers, was based on Brundage as of 3145 while under contract with the Federated Suns.[1]
By February 3151, Ramaley and his unit were on Kafr Silim, participating in war games with their fellow Illician Lancers Regiment the 59th Strike Regiment. In the exercise on 2 February, Ramaley was defeated by the 59th Strike's Colonel Luciana Araya Morales, after being successfully out-maneuvered and flanked.
On 25 May 3151, during a Lancers conclave while still on Kafr Silim, Ramaley argued that the Lancers should seek to join Duke Alexander Hasek's forthcoming assault on the Capellan Confederation. He was however not able to convince the conclave as a whole to send an envoy to Hasek offering their services, and by July much to his dismay had lost the argument entirely to Luciana Araya Morales, who with the help of Clan Sea Fox convinced the Lancers to elect her General of the Lancers as a whole and renew their contract with First Prince Julian Davion with the Sea Foxes as their bonding agent.[2]
With his command's defeat on Brundage, Kenneth's attitude was brought down a couple notches. When Luciana Morales brought to the Lancer's attention that the office of the First Prince had recalled them to the Crucis March he took the opportunity to support Luciana as a way to mend bridges he has previously set ablaze. He made it clear that her leadership was the reason they were being considered for such an important task as protecting the realm's central worlds.
On top of this he, as many others in the Lancers, wanted a chance to gut the Blakists. Now, without any way for the Sea Foxes to uphold their end of the deal on Terra because of the Blakist Resurgence he had a direction to point his anger and frustrations that was outward from the Lancers.[3]
