During the years of the Star League, the 41st Mechanized Infantry Division was instrumental in defeating a pirate raid on Bountiful Harvest.[2]

In 2764 the Forty-first was a part of LXI Corps within the Twelfth Army and was assigned to District 2 of the Lyran Commonwealth Military Region. The Forty-first was subsequently moved to an undisclosed area of the Periphery in response to the Periphery Uprising by 2765.[3] The Forty-first survived the war and the Hegemony Campaign, and followed General Aleksandr Kerensky on the Exodus in 2784.[3]
