History

Formation

The Homeworld of the 7th Confederation Reserve Cavalry is on Altorra and Brixtana. Experimental unit, created in 3058, to see if it was possible to integrate Capellan troops with Magistracy of Canopus recruits who had attended a regional training center. The Maskirovka put the unit under surveillance in 3061, and the unit was still not declared combat ready when the ceasefire went into effect at the end of the Capellan Civil War. [1]

Xin Sheng Campaign

Stationed on Altorra in 3065, when the Magistracy of Canopus pulled all of its troops from the Confederation, the Capellan Forces watched the Seventh with great interest. The unit contained so many Magistracy officers and warriors that the Maskirovka had warned the CCAF of possible massive defections. To the Seventh’s credit, not one warrior requested transfer back to the Canopian military.[2]

Jihad

During Operation: Sovereign Justice the Seventh faced off against a regiment of the Lexington Combat Group. For an untested unit they performed well, bringing the mercenary unit to a halt several times before being relieved by more experienced Capellan commands. They then took up stations on Old Kentucky, Campertown, and Tsingshai.[3]


Officers

As of 3063 the commanding officer was Sang-shao Orvus Toshadi.[1]

As of 3067 to 3085 the commanding officer was Sao-shao Georgia Shippe.[4][5]

Tactics

As of 3063, the 7th is too new to have developed any signature tactics.[1]
