Parent Command Draconis March Militia

The Addicks Draconis March Militia was a subordinate military command to the Draconis March Militia.

History

The Addicks Draconis March Militia was one of the few Draconis March Militia units the same size as a front-line regimental combat team. This was due to the Addicks PDZ being one of the busiest and most highly contested areas in the Federated Suns. The Addicks DMM lacked JumpShips to maneuver through the PDZ, so it typically split into smaller units stationed on several worlds.[1]

This lack of transport assets was offset by Nancy Bannson, who secretly pre-positioned several commercial and military JumpShips around the Addicks PDZ so the commandT could reassemble on Addicks in the event of an emergency.[1]

During the FedCom Civil War, the Addicks DMM faced off against the Davion Assault Guards and the 1st NAIS Training Cadre. The March Militia unit quickly surrendered. Troops that were loyal to the Federated Suns later formed a small subcommand that fought alongside the Assault Guards during the DCMS's reprisal raid.[2]

In 3069, the Word of Blake invaded Addicks. The Addicks DMM was completely destroyed,[3] though the survivors, no longer a coherent unit, merged with other loyal forces to the AFFS to fight the WoB.[4]
