They also bore the brunt of defensive actions of which the 233rd was particularly adept. In the 2760s the division had supplied countless garrisons specialist advice on defensive positions.[2]

The division comprised two brigades of Mechanized Infantry and a single BattleMech brigade. Also attached was a Ground Aero Wing.[3]
