Edward Pierre was the only son of the Havenite politician and Dolist Manager Rob S. Pierre. He served in the People's Navy as a Rear Admiral in charge of a battlecruiser squadron. His flagship was PNS Selim, a Sultan-class warship. Operating as part of Operation Perseus, Pierre's letters to his son were returned undelivered by Naval Security. Admiral Pierre was lost along with all hands of Battlecruiser Division 141 and 142 at the Battle of Talbot, during a failed ambush on a Manticoran light cruiser. (HH3)
