| abstract | - Holding the rank of Captain around 1902 PD, he served under Commodore Robert Dominick in the Silesian Confederacy, evaluating the new "crippler" technology. He did not trust the enigmatic arms dealer known as Charles, and was displeased with the way his ship preyed on Manticoran commerce shipping. Vaccares was put in command of PNS Forerunner, originally an Andermani light cruiser called IANS Alant. When Forerunner and the battlecruiser Vanguard attacked a Manticoran convoy, they were attacked by both the heavy cruiser HMS Fearless and the merchantman RMMS Dorado, the latter of which destroyed Vanguard by colliding their impeller wedges. Forerunner tried to flee the system, but IANS Neue Bayern intercepted and threatened to destroy the ship. Vaccares then surrendered his vessel. (HHA4.2: WOS)
