History

The First Free Worlds Legionnaires were formed in 3042 from veterans of the Defenders of Andurien and the Marik Guard. Six months later, they fought off a Federated Commonwealth raid on Suzano by the Fifth Syrtis Fusiliers. Using offense in a situation that typically called for defense threw the FedCom unit off guard and forced them to retreat off planet.[1]

They later fought in the Westover Crisis of 3046 and defended Huntingdon in 3049. After that battle, they were rotated to Andurien to defend that important world.[1]

Officers

As of 3059 the commanding officer was General Tracy Fenton.[1]

Tactics

As with their defense of Suzano, the Eagles prefer to stay on the offensive. The specialize in quick raids and flanking.[1]
