In 2764, the unit was stationed on Ronel,[2] and assigned as a part of the XXI Corps, First Army, to the Terran Military Region and then transferred to District 1 of the Federated Suns Military Region by 2765, to take the place of units sent to fight in the New Vandenberg Uprising.[3] The Ninety-ninth was destroyed during the Hegemony Campaign.[3]
