16 August, 3060Coventry Military Academy reopens(3060-08-16)
Coventry [DBC] -
We have more good news to report regarding the Lyran Alliance's military academies. A ceremony was just held to christen the reopening of the Coventry Military Academy. As all of our viewers recall, the Coventry Military Academy was damaged during the Jade Falcons' destructive invasion in 3058, which saw the Jade Falcons conquer several worlds before converging on Coventry with several Galaxies of 'Mechs. The Falcons were intent on capturing the planet's vital 'Mech factories and there was fierce fighting by the defending 10th Skye Rangers, Coventry Militia and the Coventry Military Academy Training Cadre. The Academy's buildings and grounds were caught in the middle of one particularly violent battle and the Academy has been rebuilding ever since the Falcons were forced off the planet.
13 September, 3060The 2nd Rangers make landfall on Blue Diamind.
Contract begins.
