Johannes Farb is an adopted alias of a long standing revolutionary fighter originally born in Bretonia. His place as well as his date of birth are not known. He has been tight as a clam even with his most trusted friends. Presumably the notorious Kaspar Meisnerr, the leader of the Red Hessian Army, knows, but neither man has ever talked about it in public. Johannes Farb has been within the RHA ranks for years. Not being known a cold blooded killer he has been known to use violence repeatedly to further the movements cause. Indications are that he has started out as a believer in the Volks Revolution, but has become less disillusioned in later years about the speed the revolution is going forward. Nevertheless he faithfully continues to serve the cause.
Life
Little is known of his life prior to him being recruited to Red Hessian Army. Rumors place him as an exchange student in New Berlin University, but nothing concrete can be found since the records have been tampered with after 2 years of his disappearance. Students and teachers do not remember seeing him.
Involvement in the Red Hessians
His movements are better known after his joining. He was recruited as a mechanic at first and was stationed in Vogtland for seven years repairing and servicing combat craft.
Red Hessian Army
After seven years as a mechanic in Vogtland he applied to the Red Hessian Army combat wing and got approved to take part in patrols despite the protests from his immediate superiors in Maintenance division. He completed a basic fighter flying and combat courses in 810 AS and was assigned to scout and patrol wing in Dresden. An almost fatal encounter with the Rheinland Military pilot in the start of his flying career has made Johannes as a man who calculates the risks before joining battle. In his later years a toll of constant combat sorties have taxed him emotionally and physically. Current commander of the Red Hessian Army Kaspar Meisnerr, who had joined the cause just a bit earlier than Johannes, saw the exhaustion and put Johannes into a good use behind desk by promoting him to Oberst.
He has flown virtually with every vessel class available to the Hessians, from Loki to Vidar. Johannes' personal Thor-bomber is named Red.Autumn.
Current affairs
Newly promoted he has taken on administrative task, but once in a while he can be seen doing combat sorties. A sly old fox of the revolution still got teeth.
