Lieutenant '''Jon Connel''' was a [[combat vehicle]] commander, with the [[Northwind Highlanders]]' [[First Kearny Highlanders]], as of [[2366]].<ref name=NH></ref>

==History==
Connel participated in one of the First Kearny Highlanders' first engagements, after they were reformed in the [[twenty-fourth century]], being the 2366 invasion of [[Free Worlds League]] world [[Lopez]] on behalf of the [[Capellan Confederation]] during the [[First Andurien War]]. Surprised by the defending [[Second Oriente Hussars]]' [[Manticore]]s equipping the then new [[PPC]], the Highlanders suffered heavy losses after their initial landing, leading the Highlanders to launch a deep raid on the Hussars supply depots in an attempt to even the score. Lieutenant Connel participated in the raid by the First [[Company]], First [[Battalion]] of the First Kearny with his Recon [[Lance]] commanded by [[Major]] [[Stephen McCloud]], against elements of the Hussars' defending First Battalion. This raid was ultimately successful, and allowed the First Kearny to prevail, despite the superior equipment of their opponents.<ref name=NH></ref>

==Vehicle==
Connel was known to have commanded a [[J. Edgar]] light hovertank.<ref name=NH></ref>
