After hostilities ended, the unit returned to those worlds as a peace offering. The two worlds accepted the Cavalry's presence, but generally didn't warm to the unit. Denbar's inhabitants in particular were very cold to the Cavalry. In response, the Sixth used a ''[[Firestarter (BattleMech)|Firestarter]]'' whose fuel tanks had been filled with paint to spray graffiti all over the tarmac of the main spaceport. The scale of the graffiti was such that it only became visible at an altitude of thousand meters or more.<ref>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 22</ref> The Sixth returned to Hustaing in [[3067]].<ref name=FMUp32/> |
