Largely formed from the disbanded [[Eighteenth Marik Militia]], Force Commander [[Halle Frazier]] chose to carry on the traditions of that unit even as the [[Free Worlds League]] dissolved. These traditions were maintained well-into the [[thirty-second century]], with the unit continuing to use a red rose as their logo, and calling themselves the Red Rose of Connaught.<ref name=FM:3085p90/><ref name=FM:3145p114/>

By 3145, the Fourth Marik Protectors had chosen to emphasize [[aerospace fighter]]s over more conventional units, fielding the largest number of aerospace fighters of the Marik Protectors, often allowing them to fend off pirates without their ground units ever having to open fire.<ref name=FM:3145p117/>
