History
Formation
Formed on Spencer after the Bloody Tricentennial attacks, the Second Fronc Cuirassiers were founded to increase the number of defensive units available to the Fronc Reaches. Unlike the First Cuirassiers, the Second has several officers who have visited the Filtvelt Coalition and graduated from the Filtvelt Academy. These officers are highly skilled in the anti-pirate tactics that have worked for the Filtvelt Coalition, but lack the 'Mechs to put them into practice. However, the unit has two vehicles for every 'Mech, so this may offset the lack of 'Mechs.[1]
In 3085 the 2nd Fronc Cuirassiers were stationed on Spencer.[2]
Officers
As of 3085 the commanding officer was Colonel Kenny Hintzen.[2]
Tactics
As a defensive force in the Fronc Reaches, the Second Cuirassiers are (nominally) able to repulse the fast raids favored by pirates. In 3085, however, their lack of experience makes them more dangerous to themselves than to raiders.[1]
