History
The 120th formed a part of XXXIX Corps, Tenth Army, and in 2764 was stationed in District 3 of the Free Worlds League Military Region. Following the New Vandenberg Uprising and subsequent Periphery uprising the 120th was deployed into the periphery in 2765.[2]
The 120th survived their time in the periphery and the Hegemony Campaign and the bulk of the division followed General Aleksandr Kerensky on the Exodus; the exception to this was the 4674th Striker Regiment, who chose to remain in the Inner Sphere and joined the Draconis Combine.[2]
