The Sixth Capellan Defense Force was composed of frustrated personnel from both CDF regiments, raw recruits and Home Guard veterans. The unit was assembled quickly in 3081.[2]
The 6th Capellan Defense Force was re-formed in secret sometime before 3141 as one of the Hidden Lion regiments formed by Chancellor Daoshen Liao using stockpiled equipment.[1]

The planet fell with the survivors retreating back to Confederation space.[2]
