History
The Nineteenth Arcturan Guards was one of the LCAF's most prestigious units before a series of encounters with DCMS troops in the 2900's shattered the unit. New troops were transferred in, but these replacements were mostly the sons of wealthy industrialists and nobles. These "social officers" were uninterested in anything beyond the proud history of the unit, and performance continued to decline.
During the Fourth Succession War the Nineteenth was used for cleanup and garrison duties. In fact the only faced one Combine unit directly: The 5th Rasalhague Regulars and the Nineteenth clashed on Jabuka. This minor skirmish did little to improve their skills.
For most of the mid-31st Century the Nineteenth was seen by fellow Arcturan Guards regiments as a unit that was filled with well-meaning individuals who simply weren't good soldiers. The AFFC High Command apparently thought the same thing, posting the unit to Armington[1] on the border between the Federated Suns and the Periphery. In an attempt to change their reputation, the Nineteenth launched an unauthorized attack on the Pirates Haven cluster. Unfortunately the unit wasn't successful, losing a large amount of supplies and two lances of 'Mechs.
Officers
In 3025 the unit is commanded by Leutnant-Colonel Yvonne Deltra.[2]
The commander of the Nineteenth Arcturan Guards was Leftenant General Jadwiga Poole in 3050.[1]
As of 3062, the commanding officer is Leftenant General Gloria Bishop.[3]
Tactics
The social structure of the regiment's commanders hampers the ability of the unit to fight in large scale battles. Individual soldiers have excellent skills and function well in small engagements.[3]
