History

Formation

4th Succession War

Ronin Wars

War of 3039

During the War of 3039, the Fortieth spearheaded the Combine assault on Quentin, eventually conquering the planet and its massive Independence Weaponry factory.[1]

Clan Invasion

During the Clan Invasion, the Fortieth's commander requested resources to attack the Federated Commonwealth. The tai-sa was understandably nervous, as his regiment was the only regular force remaining in the Kessel Prefecture.[2]

Jihad

Unbeknownst to the ISF, many Kokuryu-kai sympathizers were present in the Fortieth. These individuals overwhelmed their fellows who remained loyal to the Dragon and abandoned Kessel. They redeployed to Luthien, where they rebuilt their forces to regimental size. Unfortunately for them they were caught in the crossfire between Word of Blake and Clan Nova Cat forces on Luthien and destroyed. The Coordinator declared them ronin and ordered their colors destroyed in 3075.[3]

Officers

In 3057 the Fortieth was commanded by Tai-sa Carlton Doi, an officer who disliked Theodore Kurita's reforms and his posting to the Fortieth.[4]

When the Fortieth mutinied and traveled to Luthien, it was commanded by Tai-sa Edward Brandon, who led the 31st Kessel Armor regiment.[5]
