History[edit]

First Succession War[edit]

The Twenty-first Dieron Regulars were one of thirty-one regiments of Dieron Regulars to be created by the Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery after 2765.[2] The Dieron Regulars expanded by ten regiments during the Amaris Civil War,[3] and a further twenty-one regiments were raised between the end of the Civil War and the end of the First Succession War. Of the latter twenty-one regiments, eight were formed by recruiting Star League Defense Force personnel and units - including the Twenty-first - whilst the remainder were recruited more conventionally.[2] Some of the regiments of Dieron Regulars recruited from the SLDF were single regiments recruited wholesale, but the Twenty-first was based around a regiment of assorted personnel from the Ninety-fifth Mechanized Infantry Division,[1] one of the divisions within XXII Corps,[4] a part of the Fourteenth Army.[1][4] Formed in 2782, the Twenty-first was one of the first DCMS regiments to formed using former SLDF personnel.[2]
