History
First Succession War
The Eighth Andurien Hussars regiment was founded by the Capellan Confederation Armed Forces in 2784, although the origins of the Eighth lay in two older commands, the 133rd Jump Infantry Division and the Third French Infantry Regiment.[1] The 133rd was a part of XXXI Corps, within the Star League Defense Force Thirteenth Army,[2] whilst the Third French Regiment was an independent regiment within XXXII Corps of the Fourteenth Army;[3] the Capellan Confederation Armed Forces recruited two battalions of SLDF personnel from the 133rd in 2784, and using those battalions plus some of the personnel from the Third after the Third was recruited in 2785, mustered the personnel as the new Eighth Andurien Hussars.[1]
In 2822 the Eighth and Ninth Andurien Hussars left the CCAF and formed a new mercenary command, the Dismal Disinherited.[4] In addition to being a sister regiment to the Eighth, the Ninth had also been mustered around personnel from the Third French Infantry Regiment in 2785.[1]
