History

Formation

The Second Chisholm's Raiders were formed as a field reserve and training unit for the 1st Chisholm's Raiders.

Fourth Succession War


War of 3039


Clan Invasion

In 3055 the Second Raiders were upgraded to a full RCT. The First Raiders had been heavily damaged and lost their skills, and upgrading the Second was the fastest way to retain their unique capabilities.[1]

Operation Guerrero


Operation Bulldog


Civil War


Jihad


Officers

In 3025 the commanding officer is Colonel Henry Bauer.[2]

As of 3062 the commanding officer was Hauptmann General Helen Eisner, she is aided by Leftenant General Ryan Davion-Cole.[1]

Tactics

Their equipment give this unit the flexibility to counter any enemy movement and uses the high mobile forces for flanking maneuvers. Most of their equipment can move faster than 50km/h, and over a third of it can exceed 100 km/h for short periods. In addition the unit places a great deal of emphasis on independent operations, allowing the subcommands (from lances to battalions) to function effectively.[1]
