History[edit]

Formation[edit]

The Thirty-second Galedon Regulars regiment was formed during the Fourth Succession War, intended to garrison worlds of lesser importance. Its new CO, Elizabeth Vanga, has improved the "polish" of the unit, and following Tukayyid, Theodore Kurita transferred the Thirty-second to Pesht, a much more high-profile assignment.[1]

Dominion War[edit]

In 3062, the Thirty-second was attacked on Imbros III by a group of unknown mercenaries who were pretending to be the Lyons Freedom Theater Militia. This attack led the Thirty-second to petition the Coordinator for retaliation. The Coordinator authorized the Thirty-second, and several other regiments, to seize worlds in the Lyons Thumb for the Dragon.[2] The Thirty-second's landing on Sabik was contested by the Eleventh Lyran Regulars, but the LAAF High Command ordered the Lyran unit to stand down. Even after these orders arrived, the soldiers of the Eleventh kept up a low-level campaign of harassment, making the Thirty-second's stay on Sabik miserable. After several months of this, the Eleventh was reassigned to a new world.[3]

In 3050, the unit was stationed on Hunan.[4]

Jihad[edit]

Based on Imbros III in 3069, the Thirty-second was attacked by Mobile Fire. Near constant suborbital attacks and artillery strikes devastated the unit, eventually breaking it. The survivors spent most of the Jihad in Word of Blake reeducation camps. Clan Wolf forces assigned to Operation SCOUR destroyed the Blakist garrison in an unauthorized attack on Imbros, and the survivors took advantage of this. After re-equipping themselves with Blakist gear the Thirty-second was moving out to liberate other camps when Clan Wolf aerospace fighters strafed the DCMS unit, thinking a Protectorate Militia unit was starting a counterattack. The few survivors of the unit contacted the DCMS High Command.[5]
