Formation
In 2787 the 8th Sword of Light participated in Operation Broken Blade.
4th Succession War
In 3028, they took part in the Battle of Misery against Wolf's Dragoons. Though they took serious losses, they were perhaps the only Kurita unit to remain relatively intact and combat worthy. It was later discovered they were intentionally held back by Warlord Grieg Samsonov so that he could eventually claim the credit for destroying the Dragoons after the nascent Ryuken Regiments softened them up, a strategy that ultimately failed.[1]
