History
The Third Lyran Regulars spent most of their existence fighting the Draconis Combine. They are seen as a "hot-tempered" unit, fighting the Combine with every weapon available. The Fourth Succession War and War of 3039 provided several chances for the Third to face their traditional foes.
In 3040 the Third raided Sinope in the livery of the Avellar Guards. Unfortunately the Guards were participating in a diplomatic function along with ambassadors from the Federated Commonwealth and the Draconis Combine. The raid led to the High Command dismissing the Regular's commander and executive officer and reprimanding most of the others.
After the unauthorized raid, the unit was reassigned to Pitkin.[1]
The Clan Invasion saw the Third reassigned to the Lyran Commonwealth but spent their time along the Clan Wolf invasion corridor acting as a clean-up and support force for other units. In 3056 they were reassigned back to Pitkin in the Draconis March.[2]
