History

The Second Avalon Hussars were formed from elements of the Terran Alliance Marines who chose to join the new Federated Suns. During the Second Succession War the Second Avalon Hussars participated in several actions against the Capellan Confederation and Draconis Combine.[1] In 2891 the Second led a Federated Suns counterattack to retake Robinson from the 3rd Sword of Light.[2]

During the Jihad the Second Avalon Hussars were re-formed from elements of the 42nd Avalon Hussars. Between 3075 and 3079 they engaged in dozens of raids against the Word of Blake Protectorate. They were stationed on Markab in 3079.[3] Many of the Second's officers were graduates of the first post-Jihad classes of the Federated Suns military academies.[4] They were assigned to Robinson[5] to train the rebuilt Robinson DMM unit.[6]

Officers

The Second New Avalon Hussars were commanded by Melissa Davion at the time of her brother's death in 2870;[7] Melissa would continue to command the 2nd Hussars as First Prince.[8]

As of 3085, the commanding officer was Leftenant General Archimedes Ukhanov.[5]
