Biography
In 2488, Kel-Morian forces engaged Confederate forces near Fort Howe. This battle was called the Break-Out.

The Confederates were victorious and chased the Kel-Morians east into the disputed zone. Scaggs ordered a number of his men to hide in a Raffin Brothers mine only a few miles east of Fort Howe. Due to the recent battle, Fort Howe was low on troops.

Howe's commanding officer, Lieutenant Colonel Javier Vanderspool, was corrupt. He hatched a plot with Kel-Morian overseer Aaron Pax to allow a small Kel-Morian force to attack his base. His marines would load a pair of trucks with valuable treasure and allow civilian drivers to get away with it. He and Pax would split the proceeds.

Scaggs ordered Foreman Oleg Benson to lead an attack against the still-nearly-empty Fort Howe several day later, capturing a landing zone, which would enable transports to carry in a large number of troops. However, the assault was defeated, in part due to bad luck. Foreman Benson was killed early in the battle by Sergeant Tychus Findlay, while the transports were shot down by an unexpected Confederate Avenger assault.
