The Third was rebuilt by the Magistracy after the end of the Reunification War. The Third was frequently deployed as part of the Magistracy's rapid response force, and frequently encountered bandits and pirates. To assist in this task, they had the usual complement of JumpShips and DropShips, but were also supported by a permanently assigned ''[[Pinto (WarShip class)|Pinto]]''-class WarShip. In 2765 they were based on [[Canopus IV]], but the SLDF's Intelligence Command suspected that they were also being used to raid [[Free Worlds League]] systems.<ref>''Field Report 2765: Periphery'', p. 14</ref>

After the Jihad, Major Cataio was promoted to Colonel and given command of the regiment; after his promotion, Cataio did his best to ensure that the Third received more advanced technology and upgrades, to prevent an occurrence of their losses on Adherlwin. The Meniuk Forest on Adherlwin was declared a mass grave and a national reserve by the Magistracy in honor of the dead from the Chasseurs á Cheval buried there. The Third was redeployed to the world of [[Borgan's Rift]], close to Adherlwin, and dispensation for transport was given for any who wished to travel to Adherlwin to pay their respects.<ref name="FM:3085p138"/>

By the mid-thirty-second century the Third was considered to be the most mobile of the Chasseurs á Cheval, and had been deployed for some time on the border between the [[Capellan Confederation]] and the [[Duchy of Andurien]]. First posted to the region at the beginning of the century, the Third had initially been used as a rapid reaction force to prevent forces from the Duchy from raiding Capellan supply depots in the region. With the improved relations between the Duchy, the Magistracy, and the Confederation, the Third redeployed further coreward and the Third's mission changed to engaging raiders from the [[Oriente Protectorate]] and launching retaliatory raids.<ref name="FM:3145p192">''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 192, "Chasseurs Á Cheval"</ref> Since being posted to [[Boardwalk]] the Third sometimes acted alongside the [[2nd Canopian Fusiliers|Second Canopian Fusiliers]] who were based on the nearby world of [[Iknogoro]].<ref name="FM:3145p193">''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 193, "Canopian Fusiliers"</ref>
