History

As of 3025, the unit was stationed on its homeworld of Cavanaugh II.[1]

Choosing to remain loyal to the Lyran Alliance as a whole, the 36th initially refused to declare for either Katrina or Victor Steiner-Davion during the FedCom Civil War, instead seeing heavy action in opposing the Free Skye attempt to take Hesperus II. The 36th played a decisive role in that battle, coming close to eliminating the legendary Maria Esteban.[2]

Jihad

The unit was overwhelmed by the Knights of the Inner Sphere on Preston during the FWLM counterattack. The 36th Guards had no other choice but to surrender. The material was confiscated by the LCCC and the soldiers were prisoners until the end of the hostilities. [3]

Officers

In 3025 the Commanding Officer was Colonel Emily Stevens.[1]

In 3062 the Commanding Officer was Leutnant-General Peter Zambos, who took command in 3058, and he is still in command of the unit in 3067.[4][5]


Tactics

The command use often orbital drops to assault enemy position when the opponent is unprepared.[4]
