This person is a Skyshroud officer and a member of the command staff of Saturn Base.
Bruce Powell McClendon (born 5 March 1973) is an American mercenary and former military officer who has been employed since 3 April 2025 by the private military company Skyshroud LLC. He currently holds the rank of General, and has held his current appointment of Commander of Saturn Base since 19 March 2033. He previously served in various other command and staff roles at Skyshroud, including Director of the Skyshroud Strategy Branch (2030 - 2033) and Commander of the 19th Combined Arms Division (2025 - 2030).
Prior to joining Skyshroud, McClendon served from 1992 to 2023 in the United States Army before retiring as a Major-General. He spent the entirety of his service in the US Army Corps of Engineers, and served a total of eight combat tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, including in Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom.
"As the Commander of Saturn Base, General McClendon is essentially the governor of Skyshroud's slice of sovereign territory in Djibouti. He wields immense power, and also bears immense responsibility - he is the man who oversees the security and protection of Djibouti. Although he is an American, we hope that he will exercise his responsibilities to his host country in a fair and even-handed manner."
