At the end of the war Prince Alexander offered an amnesty to the survivors from the [[brigade]], and reintegrated the Syrtis Fusiliers into the [[Armed Forces of the Federated Suns]], the restructured military that replaced the [[Federated Peacekeeping Forces]] as the state military of the [[Federated Suns]].<ref name="FR2765:FSp18"/> Alexander's clemency towards the Syrtis Fusiliers and his subsequent actions in rebuffing the attempt by [[Richard Varnay]] to seize control of the Capellan March cemented the Fusiliers' loyalty to [[New Avalon]] and the wider Federated Suns.<ref name="FR2765:FSp18"/> === The Star League === The Ninth Syrtis Fusiliers served the Federated Suns well in the two centuries following the Davion Civil War; when the [[Star League]] council issued the [[Council Edict of 2650]], sharply limiting the size of the military each [[Great House]] was allowed to maintain, the Ninth and her sister regiments were left untouched. The brigade would remain ten regiments strong until shortly after the repeal of the Council Edict of 2650.<ref name="FR2765:FSp18"/> The Ninth was unusual for a Syrtis Fusiliers regiment in that by [[2765]] it had incorporated a [[DropShip]] assault [[squadron]] commanded directly by the commanding officer of the regiment, rather than the [[Federated Suns Navy]]. The incorporation of their DropShip squadron was one part of the steady increase in aerospace forces within the Ninth as a consequence of the regiment spending more than fifty years as the garrison responsible for protected the naval yards in the [[Firgrove]] system.<ref name="FR2765:FSp18"/> ==Officers== {| class="wikitable" |- ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Rank ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Name ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Command |- | colspan="4" style="background: #efefef;" | '''Commanding Officers of the 9th Syrtis Fusiliers''' |- |} ==Tactics== Unknown. ==Composition History== === 2765 === '''Ninth Syrtis Fusiliers''' (Regiment/Regular/Reliable)<ref name="FR2765:FSp19">''Field Report 2765: Federated Suns'', p. 19, "Regimental Status"</ref> :- At this point in time the Ninth were stationed on Firgrove<ref name="FR2765:FSp19"/> and had been since at least 2715.
