−	Like the other regiments of the Dieron Regulars, the First Dieron Regulars were notionally a direct descendant of the three thousand recruits the [[Dieron Federation]] tithed to the [[Alliance of Galedon]] in [[2310]], to meet [[Coordinator]] [[Shiro Kurita]]'s demands. Shiro Kurita kept the name of the Dieron Regulars alive after [[Dieron]] defected to the [[Terran Hegemony]] in [[2316]], as both a threat and a promise that Dieron and the other nearby worlds that had left the Alliance to join the Hegemony would one day be a part of [[House Kurita]]'s empire again.<ref name="FR2765p11"/>	+	Like the other regiments of the Dieron Regulars, the First Dieron Regulars were notionally a direct descendent of the three thousand recruits the [[Dieron Federation]] tithed to the [[Alliance of Galedon]] in [[2310]], to meet [[Coordinator]] [[Shiro Kurita]]'s demands.

	For the other half of each year, the Regulars were rotated to interior worlds for additional training and strengthening, and frequently saw action against bandits, where they demonstrated that they were pragmatic, well-trained and well-led regular forces rather than show troops. Recruitment into the Dieron Regulars was somewhat restrictive; recruits were vetted, with those descended from the original three thousand members of the loyal Dieron draft receiving highest priority for recruitment, followed by those from worlds close to Dieron, and then those from other worlds within the Benjamin Military District. In terms of training, the highest-priority recruits were those [[Sun Zhang Military Academy]] graduates descended from the Dieron draft; graduates of the [[Dieron Warriors' Academy]] with a similar background received the next highest priority.<ref name="FR2765p11"/>		For the other half of each year, the Regulars were rotated to interior worlds for additional training and strengthening, and frequently saw action against bandits, where they demonstrated that they were pragmatic, well-trained and well-led regular forces rather than show troops.
