[edit] History

[edit] In service as the Stapleton's Grenaders

Formed from the private guard of Lady Margaret "Bloody Mary" Stapleton.

In the 4th Succession War the 1st battalion was stationed on Wazan, the 2nd on Campertown and the 3rd on Lesalles, all planets were lost in the seventh wave of the AFFS's offensive. If any fighting occurred is unknown.

Badly damaged trying to take Sarna during Operation Guerrero in 3057. The command staff made a last stand to allow the remainder of the unit to escape.

Purged by the Maskirovka in the aftermath of the Sarna debacle, the unit was resurrected in 3060 as part of the Xin Sheng movement and renamed the First Capellan Defense Force.

[edit] In service as the 1st Capellan Defense Force

In 3064 and again in 3066 the unit made a four month long tour through the Chaos March. When Little Richard's Panzer Brigade was lost on Genoa the unit moved there to defend against any opportunistic Davion troops but the FedCom Civil War had such a drain on Davion units that no fighting occurred.

[edit] Officers

As of 3063 the Commanding Officer was Sang-shao Gary Weinrib, one of the few survivors of the Sarna attack and winner of the Liao Sunburst for Gallantry. As of 3067 the Commanding Officer is Sang-shao Alexander Zivojinovic.
