Description
L4C3 2634609.7, a Type 1 American infantry clone, was completed at L4 Colony 3 on 20 March, 2501. She was immediately shipped to the joint NATO training facility on Ganymede for basic training, and from there to various peacekeeping missions in the local systems. Her first taste of battle came in the jungles of Sigma Draconis 4, a terraforming project claimed by the Soviets. In November of 2513, her ten year tour of duty, plus a combined two years aboard the sleeper transports common to the era, was complete. "Lace 609", as she came to be known, boarded a sleeper bound for the Sol system to be processed and discharged.

609 awoke to the glare of flashlights in her face and voices calling out that they had found another survivor. Emerging from her HTI module emaciated and unable to move under her own power, she was taken to the infirmary of the rescue craft to begin her long recovery. It was there she learned that she had awakened in the year 2583. After the initial shock, her mind reeled at the sickening realization that as her fellow passengers had slowly died around her over the decades, their bodies had been recycled by onboard systems and in turn fed to those who remained.

Once 609 was again fit for duty, she was drafted into the service of Lt. Colonel Cote, who's special forces unit had been responsible for her rescue. As she had been officially listed as deceased for nearly seventy years, no records of her rescue or reactivation existed. This made her ideal for operations dependent upon plausible deniability. More importantly, at least to her, she felt that she owed her benefactors. She had been spared slow starvation aboard a dead vessel solely by Cote's intervention. Another tour seemed a small price to pay. The way 609 saw it, she had little choice but to re-enter service.

I'm pretty sure the indoctrination helped with that.

Here we have the clone soldier first seen holding Lt. Col. Cote's trenchcoat in Shik Prisoners getting a bit of target practice with her old XM16E1, one of the few artifacts recovered from the sleeper where she was found. Because she first appeared holding someone's coat, I've taken to calling her "Coathanger" just because I never had a name for her before now, though clones of her pattern is more commonly referred to as "Violets".
