The First Taurian Pride was founded as the lead unit of the Taurian Concordat's VI Corps.

History
After the formation of the Calderon Protectorate, the New Colony Lancers took on the new name First Taurian Pride to distinguish themselves from the insurrection of the Colonial Marshals. Referring to themselves as loyal Taurians engaged in civil disobedience calms the fears of the Taurian Concordat who would otherwise expect a violent rebellion like the Marshals. To further identify themselves as loyal to the ideals of the Concordat, the Pride only wear the Taurian Concordat logo.[1]
In 3064 the First Taurian Pride was deployed into its constituent battalions and stationed on Erod's Escape, Tyrrhenia, and Mirfak.[2]
After the formation of the Calderon Protectorate, the First rapidly gained experience. Where it was originally a green unit, by 3067 the frequent skirmishes with pirates and other forces led many intelligence agencies to rate the First Pride's skill level as Veteran. The regiment remained split into battalion level formations, and garrisoned Erod's Escape, Marknick, and Gaul.[3]
During the Jihad the First Taurian Pride was part of a cease-fire agreement between the Taurian Concordat and the Calderon Protectorate. With the Condordat's capital world heavily damaged, the First Pride and several other units of the Protectorate garrisoned Taurian Concordat worlds against pirates and Word of Blake sponsored units. When the Concordat launched its attack on the Federated Suns, however, the First Taurian Pride was withdrawn from the Concordat and returned to the Protectorate. (This redeployment was part of the Protectorate's condemnation of the invasion.) The First Taurian Pride was stationed on Erod's Escape.[4]
After the Jihad closed, the First Taurian Pride relocated to Erod's Escape. There they served as an example of dedication to duty for other Calderon Protectorate forces. Their permanent posting to the Protectorate caused them some problems as they were the target of dozens of pirate raids. These raids eventually wore the regiment down to a pair of battalions, but in every conflict the Taurian Pride was victorious. As of 3085 the unit is attempting to rebuild its lost battalion and longs to attack the Taurian Concordat to repay them for the Taurian's many genocidal efforts against the Federated Suns.[5]
Officers
As of 3064 the commanding officer of the unit is Colonel Brian Moore one of Jeffrey Calderons local advisers from the Calderon Protectorate.[1]
As of 3067 the unit is commanded by Colonel Peter LaCasse.[6]
As of 3085 the commanding officer was Colonel Cornelius Hamilton.[7]
In 3145 the commanding officer is Colonel Maxwell Calderon-Anderson[8]
Tactics
The Taurian Pride hasn't developed a particular tactical specialty, but their unit cohesion is present at all levels.[1]
