In December 3068, Sung's Rangers were stationed on Victoria when recently hired mercenary unit, Olson's Rangers turn their guns against Shengli Arms they were changed to defend. After inflicting significate damage, Sung's Rangers attempted dislodge the renegade mercenary unit to stop them. However, mercenaries manage to escape them by hijacking neary by civilian DropShip.

Officers

As part of a deal struck when the Cuirassiers still belonged to the Chesterton Reservers, the Sung family is entitled to hereditary command positions in the unit, though regimental and even battalion command are still determined based on skill by the CCAF. Part of this bargain also insures that unit only retains the Sung name as long as one member of the Sung line serves in the unit. The Sung family also present a new 'Mech to the commanding officer, whether they are related or not, every year. [4]

As of 3025 the Commanding Officer was Colonel Kevin Sung
