The Sixteenth Lyran Guards were a regiment of the Lyran Guards brigade active during the Star League era.[1]

History[edit]
Star League Era[edit]
During the Star League era the Sixteenth Lyran Guards was one of four regiments within the Second Lyran Guards Division, one of five Divisions of active regiments within the Lyran Guards brigade in the closing decades of the Star League's existence. Despite being the second-oldest Division within the Lyran Guards brigade, the Second was the smallest active Division by the mid-twenty-eighth century.[1]
Like the other regiments of the Guards during this era, the Sixteenth lacked any particular political ties - either regional or familial - unlike regiments in other brigades; commonly assigned to garrison postings, the Sixteenth Lyran Guards and their sister regiments were postings of choice for those who wanted to work for the Commonwealth without either regional loyalties or particular ambitions. This led to the Sixteenth and her sister regiments being manned by soldiers who were professional, but without the close-knit ties found in more parochial regiments. The Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces were intent on generating more camaraderie and esprit de corps amongst the Sixteenth and the other Guards regiments, but with little success by 2765.[1]
In 2765 the Sixteenth was enjoying a relatively quiet posting, serving as garrison for the Aristotle system, a sparsely-inhabited system only particularly notable for the large anarchist commune resident on the system's inhabited planet.[1]
