Thomas "Tommy" Kruger was a notable MechWarrior in the Seventh Falcon Strikers during the Dark Age Era.[1]
History
Star Commander Kruger was a Draconis Combine native who joined Wolf's Dragoons during a recruitment drive in the 3120s. While piloting a captured Clan Jade Falcon OmniMech, Kruger became an expert in Falcon combat doctrine, which served his unit well when a raid ran afoul of the Seventh Falcon Strikers. In order to cover the Dragoons' retreat, Kruger challenged the Seventh Strikers to single duels until Noritomo Helmer personally made him a bondsman. Tommy achieved victory in two of his Trials of Position and received command of his own Star, which he happily lead to several victories against the Lyran Commonwealth. Despite his new allegiance, the success of a Dragoons raid against the Falcon world of Izar while using an encrypted message bearing restricted information lead some intelligence sources to believe that Tommy was maintaining contact with his former comrades.[1]
