History

Clan Invasion Era

The White Hawks had spent many of their Clan Invasion years stationed on the Free Worlds League's borders and at times conducting raids into League.

On 5 January 3059 the relatively inexperienced Sixth relieved the Eridani Light Horse of their garrison duty on the worlds Kikuyu and Mogyorod. The Sixth was given a warning prior to ELH brigades leaving for Task Force Serpent that if anything should happen to their families and dependents, they would return for revenge. Strong bonds grew between the Guards and the families of the Eridani Light Horse as the years of garrison duty past. When the SLDF re-assigned entire ELH brigade base to Dieron in 3062, the Guards were sadden by their departure.
