History

The homeworld of the 39th Avalon Hussars is Newtown Square.

Formation

4th Succession War

War of 3039

Clan Invasion

The 39th completed several combat resupply missions to resistance forces on Bone-Norman, Somerset, and Black Earth. These efforts, though successful, cost the 39th about a third of its DropShips.[1]

Operation Guerrero

Operation Bulldog

Civil War

The 39th allied with Victor Steiner-Davion, but didn't relocate to the Federated Suns. Instead they supported Peter Steiner-Davion in the Lyran Alliance. Though they didn't take place in the final battle of Tharkad, they did remain in orbit as reserve troops.[2] They later returned to the Federated Suns and were stationed on Wernke-Talon.[3]

Jihad

The Blackwind Lancers destroyed the 39th on Wernke-Talon with several thermonuclear strikes.[4]

Officers

As of 3062 the Commanding Officer was Major General Bella Bragg.
