Prior to the fall of the Star League, Periphery guerrillas destroyed a preschool and housing complex full of the 368th's dependents. In response, the 368th institued severe martial law and aggressively hunted down any guerrillas in their operating area. This led to many in the Periphery loathing the unit. So much so, that the SLDF command considered rotating the entire unit out of the Taurian Concordat.[2]
