Clan Invasion


Operation Bulldog

During Operation Bulldog the Eighth Dieron Regulars joined with the St. Ives Cheveau Legers, 1st Canopian Cuirassiers, and 11th Alshain Avengers to defend Meinacos from the Smoke Jaguar's 267th Battle Cluster. (The 7th Pesht Regulars were also called in to reinforce the SLDF troops, but didn't arrive in time for the fighting.) The Eighth Dieron drove into the 267th Cluster's flank, while the 11th Alshain distracted them and the Canopian Cuirassiers cut off the Clan unit's retreat.[1]

Dominion War

The unit were held in reserve to counter any enemy movement with full force.

Federated Suns Incursion

The command secured Kuritan territory should Duke Sandoval's forces strike farther into the Combine.

Jihad

Only one of two DCMS units that fought alongside Clan Ghost Bear forces on Dieron in 3077, the 8th Dieron Regulars took heavy damage during the combat drop. Ignoring their losses the 8th forced open the doors of Fortress Dieron, allowing the Ghost Bear's Alpha Galaxy to take the fortress.[2] During the assault on Terra the 8th Dieron Regulars landed in Australia. The Word of Blake defenders scattered the Coalition DropShips as they arrived, spreading the attackers thinly on the ground. As a result the Word of Blake's 7th Division was able to destroy the Eighth Dieron Regulars completely.[3]

Officers

Tai-sa Jerry Simms was the commanding officer of the 8th Dieron Regulars in 3077.
