History
Early in 2572, First Lord of the Star League Director-General Ian Cameron issued Directive 21. The Directive gave Inner Sphere militaries the authority to "garrison" the undefended worlds of the Outworlds Alliance for "mutual defense and protection". Ostensibly, the directive was aimed at curbing pirate activity within the Alliance. The Seventeenth Galedon Regulars maintained their garrison around Santiago City on the Outworlds Alliance border world of Santiago. On December 14th, an officer within the Regulars retaliated against a mob of snow ball-throwing children, severely burning one with a canister of hot coolant. A riot mob organized, and more soldiers responded. The soldiers finally dispersed the riot by firing wildly into the mob. In total, 27 were killed, and 30 more were severely wounded[1].
Early 2930 Both the Twelfth Galedon Regulars and the Seventeenth Galedon Regulars bare the brunt of a major Davion offensive against Xhosa VII. Under the command of Brigader General Samson Sakamoto both regiments fight with valor but are severely mauled by the attacking forces.
Officers
As 2930 the Seventeenth's commanding officer was Brigadier General Samson Sakamoto. As 3050 the Seventeenth's commanding officer was Tai-sa Jon Ziblerson.
Tactics
The Seventeenth prefers heavy 'Mechs and city fighting. They are adept at using the cover in urban environs to their advantage. SecondCompany, Third Battalion, under Sho-sa Conner Rhys, operates independently of the rest of his unit, probing the enemy lines for weak spots.
