Task Force White Sentinels
Task Force White Sentinels was a Torchbearers Fleet, that was dispatched to aid the White Sentinels Chapter during the Indomitus Crusade.[1]
History
The Fleet was named by its commander, Admiral al Pre'golsa, after the Chapter they were charged with making contact with. However, the Task Force did not know if the White Sentinels were still active, due to the Chapter's affinity for dangerous close assaults. As they searched for the White Sentinels in the Karenna Sub-sector, Admiral al Pre'golsa inflicted stinging defeats on any foe the Task Force came across. These included Aeldari Corsairs, Heretic Astartes raiders and bands of Ork privateers. The Task Force's victories soon led its name to be feared by pirates across the Sub-sector. When the Task Force finally located the doggedly surviving White Sentinels, the Admiral had inadvertently given the Chapter a new reputation. Now they were known as expert naval tacticians who were to be avoided in void combat at all costs.[1]
