Jim Davis
Veteran Artillery Operator
Veteran Artillery Operator
Jim Davis was a veteran tracked vehicle driver and artillery gunner. He had 10
years of experience with various Mechs throughout his Federated Suns military
career before joining Strider's Strikers. Jim was born in 2988, ranking him as the
oldest member of the Strikers. Despite his age, Jim remained graceful in his
piloting and an excellent shot with all kinds of long range weapons throughout his
career. He finished his service in the Federated Suns military in 3054, and decided
to join the Strikers to continue his regular military lifestyle.
Jim was known for being extremely stubborn. He was also known for openly
second-guessing his commanding officers. Though some found his questioning
authority quite annoying, his experience and his own opinions typically proved
worthy to his commanders while in the field of battle. Those who barely knew him
often identified him with the darker personage of his brother, Bill Davis, of the
Mystic Fleet pirates. In reality, Jim was a kind-hearted soldier doing the only
thing he knew.
Jim was killed in 3068 during a Blakist attack on the command barracks of
Strider's Strikers headquarters. He was shot to death by Purifier battle-armored
soldiers. His death was eye-witnessed by fellow command company member,
Andrew Allen, who also died during the same attack later that night. Evidence
seems to indicate that Jim's death was avenged by pilot Tony Hopkins. Hopkins
killed several enemy troops before his own Mech was destroyed.
Jim was seen as a grandfather figure by many of the younger members of the unit.
While his gunnery skills were some of the best within the Inner Sphere half of the
Strikers, Jim never boasted about his abilities. Many younger pilots looked up to
him, hoping to learn some secrets of the trade that might improve their own
accuracy.
