'''Adam DeSanto''' was the executive officer of the [[Fifth Hastati Sentinels]] as of [[3111]].<ref name=TP:CCp19/>

==History==
[[Colonel]] DeSanto, formerly executive officer of the Fifth Hastati Sentinels, took command of the unit shortly after the beginning of the [[Capellan Crusades]] and the destruction of [[Liao (system)|Liao]]'s capital city by the invading [[Capellan Confederation]]. When [[Brigadier General]] [[Candida Morello]] became permanently incapable of leading the unit, DeSanto marched the demoralized Fifth Hastati to the ruins of the capital in order to dislodge the [[Holdfast Guard|Holdfast]] and [[Dynasty Guard|Dynasty Guards]]. Unfortunately for DeSanto, the Dynasty Guard had sent a small detachment to encircle the Fifth Hastati in order to launch a headhunter attack. Occurring at Sheng Dian Ridge on 8 November, the Dynasty Guard troops' ambush succeeded in executing Colonel DeSanto, forcing the now-leaderless Fifth Hastati to halt its attack and fall back in wait for a [[Kai Allard-Liao|miracle]].<ref name=TP:CCp19/>
