==History==
In January [[3029]], Ben Cheney served in the Command [[Lance]] of Bravo [[Company]] within the Second [[Battalion]] of the 4th Crucis Lancers when it was stationed on [[Basalt]] during [[Operation RAT]].  Cheney's unit was defending the city of [[Controssa]] when Basalt was attacked by the [[1st New Hessen Irregulars]] and [[House Ijori]].  The Capellan troops had been lured to the planet with false information regarding storehouses and supply depots supporting the continuing Federated Suns attacks into the [[Capellan Confederation]].  When the Capellan troops found the empty warehouses, they decided to vent out their frustration on the defending Federated Suns troops. During the fighting, Cheney's ''[[Hatchetman]]'' was destroyed.<ref name=TFSWSVO22-23>''The Fourth Succession War Scenarios Volume One'', p. 22-23: "Fatal Fury"</ref>
