History

Star League Era

In 2764 the unit was assigned, as a part of the XLVIII Corps, Seventeenth Army, to an undisclosed district within the Periphery. The 1894th continued to serve in the Periphery during the Periphery Uprising[1]. The unit survived the war and the Hegemony Campaign[1] and a large part of the unit joined the Armed Forces of the Federated Suns, merging with surviving elements of the Eighth Striker Regiment to form the Second Ceti Hussars.[2] The remainder evidently became a part of the mercenary unit known as the Blue Star Irregulars.[3]

Fourth Succession War

All three regiments took part in the invasion of the planet Liao during the first wave of the war in 3028.[4] They fought alongside the 33rd Avalon Hussars in that conflict.[5] They later assaulted Genoa and Arboris.[6] Genoa was easily captured, again with the 33rd Avalon Hussars help.[7]

War of 3039


Clan Invasion


FedCom Civil War

During the Jade Falcon Incursion of the FedCom Civil War, the Second Battalion of the 1894th garrisoned Black Earth after the Falcons were driven off the world.[8] The First Battalion was assigned to hold Roadside after liberation.[9]
