The 369th was all but destroyed during the Hegemony Campaign,[1] with less than a company of troops surviving to the final liberation of Terra. Every one of these survivors would accompanying Aleksandr Kerensky on his initial Exodus, with several following his son Nicholas on his Second Exodus that led to the formation of the Clans.
