Aurora E. Juutilainen

アウロラ・E・ユーティライネン

Aurora is Eila's older sister. She is part of Suomus' armored infantry, and during Operation Barbarossa she participated as reinforcement; as the commanding officer of 502nd Joint Fighter Wing's Support Unit, the specialist group comprised of elite Suomus troops, whose task is to retrieve the lost Striker Units of the 502nd Joint Fighter Wing. So mainly her duties consist of retrieving Nikka Katajainen and other crash landed members of 502nd and their Strikers. When Aurora was younger, she left the Suomus Land Officer School abruptly in order to join the Gallian Foreign Legion and participated in the Hispanian Campaign. For her behaviour in battle she earned the nickname "Terror of Morocco" (her unit arrived to Hispania through Morocco). Afterwards, when she heard of the Neuroi invasion in her fatherland, she hurriedly returned to her position in the Suomus army as a Reserve Lieutenant. She was appointed as the Commanding Officer of the 12th Division's 34th Infantry Regiment's 6th Company. In the area of the Kollaa River, her few troops managed to stop a massive offensive orchestrated by the Neuroi. From that moment on Newspapers and such picked up on her and her deeds, and elevated her to a hero status. During the second large offensive of the Neuroi, she was a Captain and her exploits kept increasing. Due to her age, questions about her retirement started to raise, but she chose to continue active service in the 502nd Joint Fighter Wing's Support Unit. Aurora is based on Finnish Army Captain Aarne Edward Juutilainen known as "The Terror of Morocco". Just like Eila and Aurora, Aarne and Eino were siblings who served in the Finnish Army and Air Force respectively.
