myminifactory

Desert Hawks regiments are led into battle by the senior officers of the Janissary Corps. They are experienced and distinguished veterans of past campaigns in the rank of no less than a colonel. The most famous officer of the Desert Hawks is Colonel Lawrence of Faisal. During the darkest moments of the Battle of Jerablus, he and his Fourth Mechanized Regiment, - the Rattlesnakes, - fought for two months in complete encirclement of the enemy, pinning down up to two of his corps in the direction of the capital of the continent. By the end of the fighting only a few company groups remained from Lawrence's regiment, but none of the lines was abandoned by the Hawks.
