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
The majority of the 40th, led by Tai-sa Edward Brandon, fought against the loyalist members of the unit and abandoned them on Kessel, in order to support the Black Dragon Society's coup on Luthien. They arrived in February 3069 and recovered their personnel losses with local recruits, but received serious casualties from both Clan Nova Cat and the Word of Blake in 3072. The Coordinator declared the unit to be ronin in February 3075 and it was stricken from the DCMS at the same time.[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.[2]
When the Fortieth mutinied and traveled to Luthien, it was commanded by Tai-sa Edward Brandon,[3] who led the 31st Kessel Armor regiment.
