This was a reflection of the reality that the Regulars could at any point be called on to fight against the [[Armed Forces of the Federated Suns]], the [[Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces]] or the [[Star League Defense Force]], as a result of the [[Benjamin Military District]] bordering the [[Federated Suns]], [[Lyran Commonwealth]] and [[Terran Hegemony]]. This was even acknowledged by the [[Internal Security Force]], who gave the Eighth and the other regiments of the Regulars more leeway than the average [[DCMS]] unit - an attitude the Benjamin Regulars repaid by limiting complaints and criticism to supply issues and local concerns, rather than anything to do with politics.<ref name="FR2765p10"/> == Officers == == Tactics == === Star League Era === The Eighth Benjamin Regulars favored a strong combined-arms approach, but otherwise were a generalist unit, and deliberately fielded a wide range of [[BattleMech]] classes to encourage adaptation to changing circumstances.<ref name="FR2765p10"/> == Composition History == === 2765 === '''Eighth Benjamin Regulars''' (Regiment/Veteran/Reliable)<ref name="FR2765p10">''Field Report 2765: DCMS'', p. 10, "Benjamin Regulars"</ref> :- At this point in time the Regulars were stationed on [[Rukbat]]; attached to the Regulars were a wing of [[aerospace fighter]]s, an artillery regiment, four infantry regiments and four armoured regiments.<ref name="FR2765p10"/> === 2786 === '''Eighth Benjamin Regulars''' (Veteran/Reliable)<ref name="FSWp136"/> :- At this point in time the Regulars were a heavy-weight regiment, operating at full strength and stationed on Rukbat.<ref name="FSWp136"/> === 2821 === '''Eighth Benjamin Regulars''' (Veteran/Reliable)<ref name="FSWp136">''First Succession War'', p. 136, "Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery (DCMS)"</ref> :- At this point in time the Regulars were a heavy-weight regiment, operating at just below half-strength and stationed on [[Reisling's Planet]].<ref name="FSWp136"/> == References == <references/> == Bibliography == * ''[[Field Report 2765: DCMS]]'' * ''[[First Succession War (Source Book)|First Succession War]]'' [[Category:Draconis Combine Commands|Benjamin Regulars, 08th]]
