History
The Eleventh Brigade was a part of the Star League Defense Force Regular Army. Formed as a part of the 4th Division during the creation of the SLDF, the Eleventh Brigade was a part of II Corps during Operation UNION HOLD, the five-year campaign to conquer the Outworlds Alliance. The Eleventh Brigade served as a part of the Outworlds Alliance Task Force from the start of the operation in 2581 until the entire Fourth Division was transferred to the Taurian Concordat front in 2584.[1]
The Eleventh was stationed on Conroe when the invasion of the Alliance began and was deployed forward to pacify the population of Niles in 2581,[2] before taking part in the attack on Sevon in late 2581. The Eleventh Brigade and the other units of the Fourth Division and the Sixth Royal Division would face the combined forces of the Pitcairn Legion and the Alliance Fourth Armored Division in what turned into a gruelling month of combat that left the Sixth Royal Division heavily damaged and the commander of the Outworlds Alliance Task Force immensely frustrated.[3]
After spending 2582 on Sevon the Eleventh joined the rest of the Fourth Division and the Fifth Division in the SLDF attack and occupation of Cerberus, an action that became a gruelling, drawn-out combat that took a heavy toll on both the attackers and defenders. The Eleventh would remain on Cerberus until it's transfer to the Taurian front.[4]
