Linda Evans

Linda Evans is one of the rising stars of the Confederate Navy. Advancing from Commmodore to Vice Admiral in a matter of months, Naval Command holds high hopes for her.

History
Linda Evans was born on Ida. She joined the Royal Military Academy, and graduated in the top ten of her class. She was then posted to the Overlord-class frigate Corax as a junior officer.

After the battle of Ida, Evans asked for a transfer to the Confederated Navy and received it, being posted to the Skaadi-class cruiser Wind Runner in the 1st Sector Fleet, simultanously receiving a promotion to Lieutenant Commander. She quickly rose through the ranks, and was promoted to Commander and then Captain in a matter of months.

When Deronin was posted to the Durgasi campaign, Evans was promoted to Commodore and transferred to his flagship as XO. She served under him, garnering the Badge of Merit during the Battle of Ortenes, until he was pulled out pending investigation of the alleged treachery of Vice-Admiral Reigart. She was quickly cleared of any direct involvement, having been under orders, and was transferred away from White Fleet. Shortly after, she received command of Task Force 17.

She commanded Task Force 17 during the brief uprising in the Jade Sector, as well as during a subsequent classified mission in the sector shortly before the Kartanin take-over of the Jade Worlds. After returning to Fuller, she was awarded the Distinguished Service Medal, promoted to Vice Admiral, and given command of the newly formed Silver Coil Fleet. She commanded the fleet during the final stages of the Durgasi Conflict, earning praise for her succesful capture of the Balzac system.
