History
The Neerabup Melissia Theater Militia (also known as the Neerabup Periphery March Militia) is the defensive unit assigned to the outer edges of Lyran Commonwealth space. The Falcon Incursion of 3058 was a surprise to the unit as the Falcon line of advance didn't follow the expected course. Instead the Falcons swung wide and entered Lyran space through the Melissia Theater.
Prior to this the Neerabup MTM acted mostly as a mobile reserve for the 22nd Skye Rangers, who were also in the Melissia Theater. The only time the Neerabup MTM moved off Neerabup was when the Rangers engaged in a pirate hunting sortie.[1]
Unfortunately they were pinned down at Fort Dresden by the 5th Battle Cluster. Though the Clanners thought the militia would simply roll over and die, the Neerabup MTM held them off for several hours. Not one MTM unit broke and ran, something that the Jade Falcons couldn't claim.[2] As a result of their actions, the Falcons took many of the survivors as bondsmen. Speculation suggests that these bondsmen will be used to fill out the ranks of the 5th Battle Cluster.[3]
Officers
As of 3059 the commanding officer is Colonel Mary Polk. She replaced Leutnant-General Edward McKenzie, who commanded the unit during the Falcon Incursion.[1]
Tactics
During the Falcon Incursion the Neerabup MTM was skilled in defensive tactics and able to find cover in nearly any terrain.[1]
After the loss of so many experienced soldiers, by 3062 the unit still wasn't able to operate as a large formation.
