	==History==		==History==
−	=== Founding ===	+	During the Jihad the Second Avalon Hussars were re-formed from elements of the [[42nd Avalon Hussars]]. Between [[3075]] and [[3079]] they engaged in dozens of raids against the [[Word of Blake Protectorate]]. They were stationed on [[Markab]] in 3079.<ref>''Field Report: AFFS'', p. 9</ref>
−	The '''Second Avalon Hussars''' were formed from elements of the Terran Alliance Marines who chose to join the new [[Federated Suns]].<ref name="HD(TFS)p81"/> The Avalon Hussars were initially founded as a brigade of approximately eight regiments around the time of the founding of the Federated Suns in [[2317]]; the first regiment to be founded following the destruction of an existing regiment was the [[Ninth Avalon Hussars]], founded to replace the [[Third Avalon Hussars]], who were destroyed in the 2360s.<ref name=FR:2765AFFSp8/> The Second were originally the training brigade for the [[1st Avalon Hussars|First Avalon Hussars]], but developed as an independent unit as [[New Avalon]] found itself increasingly in need of trained soldiers. Surviving the [[Age of War]], the Second remained active throughout the [[Star League era]] and launched a number of counterraids during the [[War of Davion Succession]]. The Second were active during the massive expansion of the Avalon Hussars following the repeal of the [[Council Edict of 2650]], but didn't see much action between the end of the War of Davion Succession and the outbreak of the [[Amaris Civil War]], although the Second continued to practice a heavy training regimen to remain combat-ready.<ref name=FR:2765AFFSp8/>
−
−	=== Succession Wars ===
−	Early in the [[First Succession War]], the Second Avalon Hussars garrisoned [[Nouveau Toulouse]]. By [[2790]], the Second had been redeployed elsewhere, [[Doc's Scorpions]] having taken their place as the planetary garrison.<ref>''Doc Bens''</ref>
−
−	During the [[Second Succession War]] the Second Avalon Hussars participated in several actions against the [[Capellan Confederation]] and [[Draconis Combine]].<ref name="HD(TFS)p81">''House Davion (The Federated Suns)'', p. 81</ref> In [[2891]] the Second led a Federated Suns counterattack to retake [[Robinson]] from the [[Third Sword of Light]].<ref>''Handbook: House Davion'', p. 64</ref>
−
−	Although the Second Avalon Hussars survived the Second Succession War,<ref name="SSWp94"/> only eight regiments of the Hussars were still active in [[3025]], all as [[Regimental Combat Team|Regimental Combat Teams]], and the Second was not among them,<ref name="HD(TFS)p140">''House Davion (The Federated Suns)'', p. 140 (PDF edition), "Avalon Hussars"</ref> indicating that the Second was destroyed or disbanded at some point during the [[Third Succession War]].
−
−	=== The Jihad ===
−	During the Jihad the Second Avalon Hussars were re-formed from elements of the [[42nd Avalon Hussars]]. Between [[3075]] and [[3079]] they engaged in dozens of raids against the [[Word of Blake Protectorate]]. They were stationed on [[Markab]] in 3079.<ref>''Field Report: AFFS'', p. 9</ref> Many of the Second's officers were graduates of the first post-Jihad classes of the Federated Suns military academies.<ref>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 57</ref> They were assigned to [[Robinson]]<ref name="FM:3085p71"/> to train the rebuilt [[Robinson DMM]] unit.<ref>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 66</ref>

	==Tactics==		==Tactics==
−	During the Star League era all of the Avalon Hussars were required to focus on being both flexible and mobile, with every regiment required to be capable of deploying within eight hours, although many of the Hussars struggled to actually achieve this. The Second was supported by an aerospace wing, although the wing was primarily attached to the Second to provide ground support.<ref name=FR:2765AFFSp8/>	+
