She got the fist?

[The Basilisk]

Would be intresting to know what deed earned her this Honor and what it means...

[Banekane]

im guessing its for services rendered to the MAF over the years not much information is leaked from that sector of space unless its about a invasion attempt or a battle this is some hopeful news that the periphery can protect its self and we can focus on doing what we can elsewhere needed

I thought ISN means Inner Sphere News. Aren't minor Periphery affairs offtopic there? It could be justifired to inform us about major changes on the Periphery - wars, alliances, coup d'etats, death of old rulers, new rulers coming to power... And about anything Periphery-related, but involving Inner Sphere somehow. But some colonel receiving some decoration somewhere on the Periphery... what's the point?

Fist of Raventhir
Created in 2997. For the unfailing service of the Raventhiri bloodline for centuries to the state. Every commissioned officer make a vote for a soldier how has earned such a honor. The fist is made of titanium and depend from a red-silk ribbon.

Is this also news of her promotion to Colonel and command of the Brigade?

I hear Darlene Ishora will be the next seat for command of the 1st Light Horse.

Although I wonder what the future holds for former Brigade Commander Colonel Trisha Trevada.

I would guess it's like how ABC News doesn't just give you news happening inside the ABC news stations/buildings. It's a name, not a description of mandate.

Yes. Apparently she's been fisted. A high enough honor to make the news...and a few web sites .

[Joseph Le Mur]

I was going to say, it sounds dirty... but this is about the Canopians... it probably is.

[Kyro Wyvern]

Nothing like a good 'Fisting' to congratulate someone for their dedicated service.

Have you ever heard ABC News reporting about division of brigade general of some Third World country receiving a decoration? (Тerran general here is analogue of BT Universe colonel, because in our universe divisions and brigades are primary indentifiable combat units, not regiments).
