History

Formation

Formed to replace the presumed-destroyed 4th An Ting Legion, the Sixth spent most of 3058 and 3059 as a Training Cadre.[1] Most of the soldiers in the unit came from the newly-reopened An Ting Academy, and held a grudge against the Sun Zhang MechWarrior Academy because

Operation Bulldog

The 6th An Ting Legion took and held Nykvarm alongside the Red Lancers and Ryuken-go.[2][3]

Dominion War


Federated Suns Incursion

Composition History

3059

6th An Ting Legion (Regiment/Green/Reliable)[1]

  • CO/1st Battalion: Tai-sa Ch'ien Hsia
  • 2nd Battalion: Chu-sa Kakuri Myazaki
  • 3rd Battalion: Chu-sa Bethany Kobu

6th An Ting Aerospace/Silver Lining (Wing/Regular/Questionable)[1]

  • Wing Commander: Dai-i Trenton McDaniels

- The Silver Lining is a aerospace mercenary company

6th An Ting Armor (Battalion/Regular/Reliable)[1]

  • Armor Commander: Chu-sa Minami Kenju

3rd An Ting Motorized Infantry (Regiment/Green/Reliable)[1]

  • Troop Commander: Tai-sa Blake Hendriksson

3067

The Composition of the unit remains unchanged from 3059. It is unclear whether the 6th An Ting Aerospace still employs Silver Lining in a command role, but given the unit's upgrade in loyalty from questionable to reliable, it is likely the mercenaries are no longer employed.
