In order to join, one must have five years of flawless service in another regiment and pass a series of mental, physical, spiritual, and political tests.

One oddity of these regiments is that each one consists of four battalions instead of three. The Sword of Light regiments are not tied to a specific area of deployment, but travel the realm to assist where needed. Their 'Mech paint scheme is usually flat red, with the Kurita crest on the left shoulder. Originally numbering twelve, by the Third Succession War the Sword of Light were reduced five, with each regiment represents one of the five Pillars of Kurita society:
