Military Service
DeMarion served as an officer in the Lourennian Army until his retirement in 2664. He began his career as a Lieutenant after graduating from the Lourennian Military Academy. He entered official service as a tank commander and found success in developing new battlefield tactics for armoured assaults. He quickly rose in rank but was never able to become a general due to a his insubordination to some of his commanders. By the end of his career he was highly reguarded by the troops who served under him and by military theorists. His new tactics were used by many nations but found particular success in nations that had relatively small militaries. DeMarion's strategy revolved around the use of limited resources to strick quickly and surgically at weak points in an enemy's defences. Toward the end of his career he came under fire for associating with many high ranking members of the People's Power Party.

He worked closely with many members of the party to draft much of the legislation that led to the Lourennina military becoming a true force.
