In [[2764]], the unit was assigned, as a part of the [[XLIV Corps (Star League)|XLIV Corps]], [[16th Army (Star League)|Sixteenth Army]], to District 3 of the [[Draconis Combine Military Region]], but was moved to an undisclosed area of the [[Periphery]].<ref name=SL149>''The Star League'', p. 149, "Sixteenth"</ref> The 124th was destroyed during the [[Periphery Uprising]] in [[2765]].<ref name=SL149/>
 
 
The unit attracted the bulk of Hegemony SLDF personnel obsessed with Combine popular culture: Draconis TV dramas, pop idols, and animation. This became the unit's distinguishing characteristic. Numerous complaints were filed regarding the images of cartoon characters and singers that festooned the regiment's BattleMechs, and though a number of the unit's machines appeared on the covers of specialty magazines, the majority of the [[Draconis Combine]] populace regarded the 124th with thinly veiled disgust.<ref name=FMSLDFp194/>
