The Seventy-second Infantry Division was a part of the Star League Defense Force Regular Army.

History

In 2764, the unit was stationed on St. Andre[1], assigned as a part of the XXIV Corps, Fifth Army, to the Capellan Confederation Military Region and transferred to District 2 of the Capellan Confederation Military Region by 2765.[2]. The Seventy-second survived the Periphery Uprising and the Hegemony Campaign, and followed General Aleksandr Kerensky on the Exodus in 2784.[2]
