ALLEGIANCE: Hawks [Own Account] ; Strong leanings towards Songbirds due to ties with W-Y and 3WE
LEADERSHIP: Preferring a strategic and usually slow approach to battle, Major Rockwell is most home to the Combat Information Center from where she intends to direct the flow of combat. She intends to uphold an Order of Battle, emphasizing frequently the cohesion of singular Squads on the ground. Singular brave, heroic Marines will inevitably die if their Squad is stranded and lost, she claims. Rockwell appears to be a fervant proponent of a doctrine of Superior Firepower, encouraging massed and repeated usage of orbital ordinance, artillery, air strikes and armoured support. She forfeits most flanking maneuvers and gravitates towards disregarding them as 'too risky' and 'playing with lives'. Instead, she prefers solidfying her available manpower and firepower for central offensives to crush an enemy line, from which to exploit the created gap and rout the enemy. This stratagem is tried and true, and works offensively as well as it does defensively, according to her.
NOTES: Major Rockwell is a peculiar individual among the newest additions to the Third Fleet's officer roster. Being a non-american, she already earns the ire of some of her colleagues from that alone, let alone subordinates. Add on-top of that her ties to Weyland-Yutani through her father and constant dealings with them, as well as the Empire, and you have a Woman that has a lot of rumors and talk going on behind her back. Regardless of this, Rockwell has proven to objectively be capable and fit for the role handed to her. Though her tone is often complaining, even ranting, which again does not earn her many supporters, she displays a great deal of energy, vigor and dedication in pursuing what she must and wants, and this behaviour is apart of that. The Fleet thinks she is still a potential security leak, but since she harbours an official Liaison from the Royal Navy on her ship now, we cannot start wide-reaching sweeps to search for dirt on her. Though surprisingly, she conducts most of her dealings publicly, without pursuing an effort of concealing herself, and admitting to everything. This is in stark contrast to the Songbird lobby, and is deemed a very positive attribute in favour of the Major. Rockwell will remain for now, in any case. She is capable and eager, and even a useful diplomatic tie-in for the 3WE and us. We will be keeping an eye out, however.
