Unit Description
XIII Corps (or the Thirteenth Corps) was one of the seventy-two Corps that made up the Star League Defense Force. XIII Corps was one of the smaller Corps; prior to the collapse of the Star League it consisted of 4 divisions and 2 independent regiments. [1]
History
In 2764 XIII Corps was part of the 10th Army, assigned to District 3 of the Free Worlds League Military Region. When the simmering violence and rebellion building in the Periphery erupted with the New Vandenberg Uprising and subsequent Periphery-wide uprising in 2765 XIII Corps was deployed into the Periphery Military Region along with the rest of the 10th Army.[1]
The resulting combat and terrorist actions within the Periphery Military Region effectively destroyed XIII Corps; all four divisions were destroyed, and one of the two independent regiments, the 237th Hussar Regiment, defected and joined the rebels. By 2766 only one independent regiment remained as a coherent fighting unit within XIII Corps, the 11th Dragoon Regiment.[1]
The 22-year campaign to liberate the Terran Hegemony resulted in the destruction of the 11th and with them the last remnant of XIII Corps.[1]
