Operation Bulldog
During the Operation the planet Jeanette was liberated through a task force which includes the Second Dieron Regulars, 1st Amphigean Light Assault Group, 1st Aragon Borderers, Warrior House Daidachi and the Crater Cobras. The defending Nova Cat Lancers give the ownership of the planet back to the DCMS after a trial of possession, which they lost. The Second also helped liberate Albiero.
Xin Sheng Campaign
The Second Dieron Regulars were part of the SLDF peacekeeping force deployed to the St. Ives Compact. They landed on Vesthallas and ordered the defenders to disarm. Aliesha's Mounted Fusiliers and the militia unit refused, and the Second engaged the defending units. They pushed the Fusiliers off of Vesthallas.[2]

Jihad
In 3077 the 2nd Dieron Regulars was one of two units to fight alongside Clan Ghost Bear forces on Dieron. Their air wing, the Dragon-kin, was decimated on the way to the planet but the ground units landed with few casualties. That changed when the 2nd Dieron encountered the Word of Blake's 19th Division. The 19th used a Luthien Armor Works facility as their headquarters, and the 2nd Dieron took serious losses breaching the facility's defenses. The Blakists had the last word however, killing most of the 2nd Dieron Regulars command structure when they detonated several nuclear warheads and destroyed the LAW facility.[3]
The survivors also saw some combat on Styx in 3077.[4] Later they joined Operation SCOUR and participated in the assault on Cairo.[5] During the combat drop, Blakist surface-to-air fire destroyed about half the unit. After the Jihad ended, they returned to Dieron.[6]
