Archibald McCarron was the third commanding officer of the McCarron's Armored Cavalry Brigade.

History[edit]

Command[edit]

In 3002, Archibald would inherit command of the Armored Cavalry when his older brother was killed in a bar fight.[1] In 3007, he led a deep strike to hit the Wolf's Dragoons base on New Valencia. This raid was one of the first command decisions he made.[2]

Death and legacy[edit]

After the death of Archibald during a training accident in 3050, the close-knit group elected Marcus Baxter to take command of the mercenary brigade. Marcus later married Archibald's widow and adopted his two children, Rhamses and Faith, who would eventually take command of the unit.[3]

Behind the Scenes[edit]

In MechWarrior 5: Legend of the Kestrel Lancers, Archibald McCarron was voiced by Daeron Katz.[4]
