History
After the Florida TTM was established, it took part in several scientific expeditions. The unit was assigned to guard a group of planetary surveyors who were working near the Circinus Federation. Later they supplied several protection and support teams to scientific expeditions in the Enders Cluster. These guard duties were well-suited to the Florida TMM, as their equipment wasn't top of the line and wouldn't be as effective on the battlefield.[1]
The Florida TTM was loyal to Katherine Steiner-Davion in the FedCom Civil War, but didn't participate in any combat actions.[2]
Though the Florida TMM didn't participate in the Jihad, a battalion of troops was transferred out of the unit to help rebuild the 1st Royal Guards.[3]
In 3145 the Florida TMM was still guarding the Commonwealth's Periphery border. They also hosted several representatives from the Rim Collection who were investigating the possibility of providing the Florida TMM with autocannons and ammunition. This would allow the Florida TMM to move away from the mostly energy weapon based loadout of their 'Mechs and vehicles.[4] At this time they were stationed at Halifax.[5]
