VMM-764 is a light transport and close air support squadron that has served since the Korean War. They originally flew helicopters where they got the name Moonlight due to their training in night operations. They were the first squadron to use tiltrotor craft and the first to test their space-capable cousins. They flew the newer Bulldog when The War came upon us all, though their standard missions were disaster relief and sometimes dignitary guard duties during conferences. They helped us secure countless landing zones, engaging both ground and aircraft, on thousands of asteroids, moons, planetoids, and planets throughout the Hyades Cluster.

You know I have a pool, right? In my ship. It’s actually the water bunker for the fusion reactors that power the ship. And that gives me water to drink. And gives the fish a place to grow up until they’re big enough to slap on my plate. It’s a pretty multifunction affair. I even have a little sandy nook next to it so I can sit and relax and make believe I’m on a real beach. It’s one of the little things that keeps me from going stir crazy while flying around hyperspace in a tin can. It’s a little piece of home I can swim through and just relax with.

There were two major conflicts that Jane 3.0 fought in before the Second Great Depression. The first of course was fighting against the various Islamic States in the Middle East along with most of our military. The second was what we thought to be the far less threatening border between the United States and Mexico. We were the sole superpower on Earth and Mexico was a failed state run by drug lords. They were no threat to America. Jane 3.0 ably helped the Border Patrol keep watch, but they never had the firepower to control the border. Political warfare in Washington made certain of that. But everything changed the day they killed Jane.

Captain Jack Hart is a busy man.  He flies places.  He does things.  Important things.  Really.  He’s fought aliens and humans.  He’s uncovered ancient secrets long forgotten and flown into the face of entire fleets of enemy starships.  He is a man of iron grit and grim determination.  He goes places where angels fear to tread.  Honest.

But there is at least one thing to be found in the all the worlds that he is not prepared to face.  That will leave him asking people for the number of the bus that hit him.  That will scare him spitless.

The old girlfriend that got away.

The Flying Nightmares flew old Helldivers before The War came upon us all. They were the most widely deployed First Generation Gravtech bomber and remained in use with militia and corporate forces throughout The War. They were good little bombers for their time, but technology had made them obsolete by 2300. The Nightmares received Marauders before the Hyades and we flew missions with them throughout the cluster. Whether attacking enemy warships or orbital defenses. The Marauders proved effective against them all, and the Flying Nightmares gave the Chinese exactly that. Nightmares.
