Since becoming equipped with BattleMechs, the Proserpina Hussars served as rapid-reaction units, constantly on the move - often staying on a planet for little more than a month or two before moving on.<ref name="FR2765DCMSp14"/> The various Hussar regiments including the Seventh made a point of regularly challenging [[Star League Defense Force]] units to training exercises, and while the balance of victories lay with the [[SLDF]], the Hussars always represented a challenge and won a surprising number of victories. Unfortunately, the very mobility that was a hallmark of the Hussars was also a disadvantage when it came to ensuring that they were kept adequately supplied, as demands for spares and matériel could take months to catch up do the demanding unit - as could new and replacement personnel.<ref name="FR2765DCMSp14"/> In common with the other regiments of the Hussars, the soldiers of the Seventh were concerned primarily with being the best soldiers they could be; the average member of the Seventh viewed politics as distasteful, and the high level of confidence each had in their own abilities could lead to the Hussars fighting on past the point at which they should retreat, and taking heavier casualties as a result.<ref name="FR2765DCMSp14"/> ===Succession Wars=== ====Just prior to the First Succession War==== Just prior to the "official" start to the [[First Succession War]], the Seventh Proserpina Hussars, joined by the [[12th Benjamin Regulars|Twelfth Benjamin Regulars]], attacked the world of [[Battle of Gram (2785)|Gram]] in [[2785]].

To prove themselves capable of serving in the Hussars, and officer or soldier could be tested by the Commanding Officer of each regiment in multiday exercises during which those tested would have to demonstrate their ability to cope with highly fluid and mobile combat situations.<ref name="FR2765DCMSp14"/> ==Composition History== === 2765 === '''Seventh Proserpina Hussars''' (Regiment/Veteran/Reliable)<ref name="FR2765DCMSp14">''Field Report 2765: DCMS'', p. 12: "Proserpina Hussars"</ref> :- At this point in time the Seventh was based on [[Sutama]] and was supported by a single [[aerospace fighter]] wing, two jump infantry regiments equipped with lasers and [[SRM]]s and two hovertank regiments.<ref name="FR2765DCMSp14"/> === 2786 === '''Seventh Proserpina Hussars''' (Regiment/Veteran/Reliable)<ref name="FSWp137">''First Succession War'', p. 137: "Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery"</ref> :- At this point in time the Seventh was a light-weight regiment stationed on [[Gram]] and was operating at full strength.<ref name="FSWp137"/> The unit was destroyed during the war.<ref name="FSWp137"/> ==References== <references /> ==Bibliography== * ''[[Field Report 2765: DCMS]]'' * ''[[First Succession War (sourcebook)|First Succession War]]'' [[Category:Draconis Combine Commands|Proserpina Hussars, 7th]]
