History[edit]
In 2764, the unit was assigned as a part of XLI Corps, Ninth Army to District 2 of the Free Worlds League Military Region.[1] While always keeping a company stationed at the XLI Corps headquarters on Tamarind—rotated out every six months—the 802nd would typically patrol the Lyran Commonwealth border, sometimes supported by the 802nd Independent Aero Wing which provided heavier air support.[2]
The Fifty-first was later moved to an undisclosed area of the Periphery. The unit was destroyed during the Periphery Uprising in 2765.[1]
