Jack of Harts

It was because of Charles that the Cowboys stopped wearing military uniforms during the Hyades Campaign. The Alliance had ordered us to help keep the peace, but the locals didn’t trust the military. They also didn’t trust the Free Chinese we put in charge of their planets. So Charles donned a business suit and went out to talk to them. It was actually a natural thing for him. He grew up wearing business suits, you know. And the locals were used to various overseers walking around in business suits. But Charles talked to them like equals, and they loved that. The rest of us followed his example and got suits of our own, and the rest is history. The business suit became our uniform, and it worked from one corner of the Hyades Cluster to the other. It also worked after War’s End, and that is all thanks to the example Charles put forward.
