History[edit]
Fourth Succession War[edit]
On September 12 3028, the Eighth Galedon Regulars dropped onto Harrow's Sun and engaged Wolf's Dragoons in what turned into a long protracted siege.[1] Elements of the Eighth faced elements of Wolf's Dragoons Epsilon Regiment.[2] They spent several months besieging the Dragoons, who had taken shelter in an AFFS fortress named Fort Belvoir. After several months of ineffective aerospace fighter and BattleMech strikes, the Eighth deployed combat engineers who tunneled into the fort. Infantry attached to the Galedon Regulars seized multiple high points in the fortress itself and killed the Harrow's Sun militia units assisting the Dragoons. As the Dragoons turned to face this threat, the Galedon Regulars' BattleMechs charged through the minefields and attacked. The Dragoons and Regulars fought for several days, but eventually the Dragoons were forced to withdraw to Crossing.[3][4]
