History[edit]
Burrock Absorption[edit]
The unit had shown great fighting spirit in the counterattack with the Ninth ACS on Priori during the Burrock Absorption. During that battle the Galaxy Commander was killed and the colonels of both cluster avenged him. The fight was fierce and the Spirits lost in the engagement the Twelfth Blood Drinkers, Nineteenth and the Fifty-sixth Assault Clusters. The medium weight unit could rebuild quickly after the end of the Absorption.[1]
