The Second Albion Training Cadre is one of two cadet commands of the Albion Military Academy.

History[edit]

By and large the cadets of the Second Albion Training Cadre was able to stay out of the FedCom Civil War. Towards the end of the war, however, they provided a great deal of manpower for the Allied cause, eventually deposing Katherine Steiner-Davion. Though they sustained serious losses and smaller class sizes led to a smaller force, the High Command decided to fill the Cadre's open positions with soldiers from front line units.[2]

After the Civil War, the Cadre was redeployed to Hyalite and destroyed all Taurian Concordat resistance there.[2] The Taurian forces had discovered that the population was considerably less enthusiastic to see them than the inhabitants of the Pleiades Cluster. The Third Taurian Lancers and a small mercenary command, Lennox's Light Horse, fought against the Second Albion Training Cadre before the sudden departure of the Lancers back to Concordat space left the Light Horse high and dry. Despite the slaughter of civilian dependents on Bromhead by Taurian forces the month before, the Light Horse were allowed to surrender and depart after handing over the WHM-8D Warhammer piloted by the mercenary commander as ransom, due to their good conduct during the campaign.[3]

In 3078, Princess-Regent Yvonne Steiner-Davion signed the "Academy Appropriations War Powers Act". This act conscripted the Second Albion Training Cadre into the AFFS. As a result, the command was disbanded in 3078 and integrated into the Davion Brigade of Guards. The future of the Second Albion was still open in 3085. If reconstituted, the command was expected to follow the LCT structure.[4][5]

In 3145, the Second Albion had returned to active duty and was stationed on Cerulean in the Draconis March together with the First Albion Training Cadre.[6]
