History

The 333rd Mechanized Strike was one of the defending units during the Battle of Tokasha.[1] The 333rd's aerospace fighters were the first Horses forces to engage the attacking Clan Ghost Bear forces, followed by Trinary Alpha of the 333rd.[2] They successfully withdrew from the field, sucking elements of the Third Bear Regulars into a trap.[3]

The 333rd was stationed on Eden in 3067.[4]

They raided Balsta in 3141.[5] The 333rd used freeborn officers as well as trueborn.[6]
