−	The '''Ninth Avalon Hussars''' had the unfortunate distinction of being the first new [[Avalon Hussars]] [[regiment]] to be commissioned because of the destruction of another Hussars regiment. The [[Third Avalon Hussars]]—known as "Cerberus' Fury"—fell in battle in the 2360s, and the survivors from the Third were incorporated into the new Ninth regiment. With the assistance of those survivors from the Third, the Ninth went on to earn a fierce reputation, along with the nickname "The Hounds of Cerberus," and were active throughout the [[Age of War]] and [[Star League era]].<ref name="FR:FS2765p8">''Field Report 2765: AFFS'', p. 8: "Avalon Hussars"</ref>	+	The '''Ninth Avalon Hussars''' had the unfortunate distinction of being the first new Avalon Hussars regiment to be commissioned because of the destruction of another Hussars regiment.
