The 102nd Royal Light Horse Regiment was a part of the Star League Defense Force Regular Army. It was one of the SLDF's Royal units, which consisted of troops from the Terran Hegemony.

History[edit]

In 2764, the unit was assigned as a part of VIII Corps, Fourteenth Army to District 1 of the Draconis Combine Military Region.[1] Elements of the 102nd had been loaned to XIV Corps to help train its many green units. This had the reciprocal effect of keeping their skills sharp in a period when there was little activity otherwise.[2]

The 102nd was transferred to District 2 in 2765 as part of the redeployment effort to fight the Periphery Uprising. The unit was destroyed during the Hegemony Campaign.[1]
