History

The Third Republican Guards Regiment was formed in 3029 from the first and second battalions of Justine's Grenadiers and the second battalion of the 4th Confederation Reserve Cavalry. These former Capellan Confederation units were "orphaned" during the Fourth Succession War and joined the new Tikonov Free Republic.[1] Justine Gordon quickly built a new regiment out of these two heavily-damaged units.[2] In 3030 the Third Republican assaulted Wasat, and forced the 15th Marik Militia to withdraw after capturing their headquarters unit.[3]

In 3035 the Third Republican raided the Nestor system while the Free Worlds League was distracted by the Andurien Secession.[4]
