Dawn DeMarco flew under Ken Banno’s wing back during the War’s early years, but she quickly became the heart and soul of the gang of misfit Cowboys that enjoyed the party scene. They glomped onto her like birds of a feather and spent years going to rich and fabulous parties throughout Alpha Centauri, Earth, and the other core worlds. They worked with various and sundry Western Alliance intelligence agencies to stop war profiteering, and those agencies helped keep their involvement under cover so they could continue their good work. And of course Ken joined her for most of them. He was famous in his own right, and could fit into those parties just as well as she. I pulled them out of all that when it came time to send Third Fleet to strike back at the Russians. That was for the Epsilon Reticuli campaign. Yeah. Epsilon Reticuli.
