Proud Division of the Dresden Group
Overview
Hawk Company was formed in the Fall of 2016 by Brigadier General Arnold Smith following the Cpuernian War (2015). Hawk Company was originally made up of ex-Sea Serpents (another PMC group) and ex-Eemerian Military Officers. From 2016-2022 they served solely as a bodyguard type group and a majority of the time served Middle Eastern businessmen. Shortly after that they expanded and were bought out by the Dresden Group who incorporated them into their global organization in 2027.
History
Brig. General Arnold Smith served in the 1st Expeditionary Force during the Anean Continental War, 2nd Vernin uprising, and the Cpuernian war. He was promoted to Brigadier General towards the end of the Cpuernian war after being one of the most important soldiers in the force. As the war was winding down tensions grew in the Expeditionary Force over their prolonged occupation of Cpuernia regardless of the fact that the nation had been rebuilt (as of 2015). Smith was one of the three generals who petitioned publicly to have the 1EF withdrawn from Cpuernia after their 4 year stay in the country. The Eemerian Chiefs of Staff saw this is public insubordination and they were given an ultimatum...resign from the military with full honors or be branded a traitor and thrown out of the ranks. The three of them not wanting their future careers to be tarnished resigned from the military on a good note and parted ways with their military careers. Arnold Smith went back into the finance business with his father before he was approached by two ex-Sea Serpents Lieutenants who had retired from the PMC business. They had heard of his military background and wanted his help in forming their own PMC Company. Therefore the Hawk Company was born. For the first few months it only consisted of twelve members who were contracted in pairs to be bodyguards for wealthy businessman overseas. Following the official end of the Cpuernian occupation hundreds of soldiers were out of jobs so they came to Hawk Company and increased their numbers to 724. This was when Hawk Company went global and was bought by the Dresden Group. That brings us to present day where Hawk Company is currently 1.2 Million strong and operating globally for nations and companies alike.
