History

In 3065, the 3rd was re-deployed to Denbar from Magistracy space after years of recuperating from the Capellan Civil War. Magestrix Emma Centrella has allowed the unit to confer with her daughter Naomi Centrella commands. The deployment marks first time the unit's dependents were allowed to go along with the service members.[1]

Located on Sian at the beginning of the Jihad, the 3rd Canopian Fusiliers were not heavily damaged by the Blakist forces in either of the major battles. In the first strike (in 3070) they fought the 17th Division and Dragon's Breath mercenary command.[2] They were the first forces to reach their defensive positions in the second Blakist attack[3]; 3074 saw them fight the 8th Division, 24th Division, Warrior House White Tiger, and Warrior House Rakshasa.[4]

Officers

From 3064 as to 3067 the commanding officer is Colonel William Sangrey.[5]
As of 3070 the commanding officer is Colonel Naomi Centrella.[6]
