The Eighty-First Mechanized Infantry Division was a part of the Star League Defense Force Regular Army.[1]
History
The 81nd formed a part of LVIII Corps, Seventh Army, and in 2764 was stationed in District 3 of the Capellan Confederation Military Region. Following the New Vandenberg Uprising the 81st was deployed into an undisclosed area of the Periphery in 2765.[1]
The 81st took heavy losses during the Periphery Uprising and by 2766 the division had been disbanded. A complete sub-unit of the 81st, the 4th Tau Ceti Rangers regiment survived the Periphery campaign, and opted not to join General Aleksandr Kerensky on the Exodus but instead became mercenaries in the employ of the Capellan Confederation.[1]
Composition History
As an SLDF mechanized infantry division the 81st would have been formed from one brigade of BattleMech regiments and two brigades of mechanized infantry.[2]
