History
Garrisoning Duty
The Seventh was assigned to garrison duty on Land's End in 3022.[1] The unit assigned meant to world nearly forty years with anything occurring. The unit's dedication to the Combine, was all that kept the unit protesting their unexciting assignment. During this time, commanders of the unit transferred individuals of exceptionable ability to frontline units so their talent would not be wasted.
By mid 3050s, the unit discipline had grown lax. The DCMS High Command has under-supplied the regiments for years feeling the such supplies are needed elsewhere.
Clan Fighting
In 3058, the unit was moved to Meinacos to reinforce the Eigth Dieron Regiment as part of preparation for Operation Bulldog. The unit's infantry regiment, Second Periphery Watchers was left behind on Land's End since they were local unit.[2].[3] The Seventh unfortunately did not arrive in time assist the Eighth from counter-attacked staged by Clan Smoke Jaguar survivors. After the Jaguars being forced out, the Seventh was assigned to Courchevel.
However, things became interesting again for the Seventh when Combine-Ghost Bear War broke out in 3062. Courchevel became target for the Clan Ghost Bear's Third Bear Regulars. The Seventh's years of inexperience finally caught up with them as they faced battle-harden Clan Warriors. The unit was forced to sacrifice battalion worth of BattleMechs in order make good its withdraw from the planet. The unit withdrew to Byesville, where unit assigned as part the world's garrison force. The unit began after Ghost Bear War train expensively anti-Clan tactics, vowing never allowing themselves routed again by the Clans.[4]
