Rebecca Lindemann was a notable tank battalion commander in the Cumberland militia during the Dark Age Era.[1]
History
Leftenant Colonel Lindemann's battalion included a large number of heavy tanks, which she used in conjunction with her limited VTOL assets to launch a series of successful surprise attacks against the Capellan Confederation's invading forces. With her heavy tanks' plasma rifles, Lindemann's attack along the M87 highway successfully eliminated three Confederation BattleMechs. By alternating her tactics, Lindemann was able to launch two more strikes that dealt damage and casualties to the advancing foe, ultimately delaying a full BattleMech battalion for a week. Against her objections, Lindemann was ordered to lead her troops against the invaders once more after they reached the outskirts of the capital city, but the Capellans had finally caught on to the defenders' strategy and mauled her force in the tight urban environment. Penned in and unable to escape, Lindemann's tankers succumbed to a mixture of flanking assaults and armored infantry swarms.[1][2]
