Major General '''Daniel Jordan Grimm''' was the commander of the [[Star League Defense Force]]'s [[XLV Corps (Star League)|XLV Corps]] from at least [[2762]] to [[2764]].<ref name=FMSLDF>''Field Manual: SLDF'', p. 212</ref>

==History==
Born on [[Monongahela]] in the [[Federated Suns]], to a poor family who prospected for rare earth elements, as a young man Grimm sought employment as a [[LoaderMech]] pilot at the local spaceport. Discovered by SLDF recruiters after excelling at a [[BattleMech]] piloting simulation taken on a whim, he was given a scholarship for underprivileged recruits to attend the [[Sandhurst Royal Military College]] on [[Terra]], where he graduated near the top of his class.<ref name=FMSLDF></ref>

At Sandhurst, Grimm was in the same class as [[Bedwyr Ross]], with whom he became close friends. The two sought to serve in the same formations following graduation, and both rose to Corps command at a similar time, with Ross taking charge of [[LXVIII Corps (Star League)|LXVIII Corps]].<ref name=FMSLDFp216>''Field Manual: SLDF'', p. 216</ref>

As a [[Corps]] commander, Grimm took pride in showing off his modest roots to the citizens of the [[Outworlds Alliance]] where he was assigned, and used his units own [[IndustrialMech]]s to assist in harvests and planting on [[Alpheratz]] in the two years leading up to 2764.<ref name=FMSLDF></ref>
