While the 1st battalion was stationed on Wazan, the 2nd on Campertown, and the 3rd on Lesalles all three planets were lost in the seventh wave of the AFFS's offensive. It is unknown if the units participated in any fighting during this time.

Operation Guerrero

Then called Stapleton’s Grenadiers, the unit was badly damaged trying to take Sarna during Operation Guerrero in 3057 during which the command staff made a last stand to allow the remainder of the unit to escape.

Purged by the Maskirovka in the aftermath of the Sarna debacle, the unit was resurrected in 3060 as part of the Xin Sheng movement and renamed the First Capellan Defense Force.
