	==History==		==History==
−	The '''Seventh Donegal Guards''' were stationed on [[Etiler]] in [[2765]].<ref name=FR:2765LCAFp11/> The Seventh was active prior to the 2500s, but they were destroyed in combat with the [[Draconis Combine]] at that time. The Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces increased the size of their academies briefly, and this surge of trained soldiers allowed the Archon to rebuild the Seventh.<ref>''Field Report 2765: LCAF'', p. 10</ref>	+	The '''Seventh Donegal Guards''' has usually been stationed on the [[FWL]] border. It's known for having raided Irian in January [[2842]], and also for devastating the [[20th Marik Militia]] on [[Concord]] in December [[3048]].<ref name=FMLA68>''Field Manual: Lyran Alliance'', p. 68, "7th Donegal Guards Unit Profile"</ref>
−
−	===Succession Wars and after===
−	The Seventh was involved in the five-way battle for [[Tyrfing]] as part of the LCAF raiding force that landed in July [[2788]]. While the regiment's BattleMechs managed to weather the profligate use of nuclear and chemical weapons reasonably well, its supporting armor and infantry suffered far heavier losses.<ref>''First Succession War'', p. 110: "The Tyrfing Holocaust"</ref> They also lost two companies to a combined force of the [[7th Oriente Hussars]] and the [[Black Sharks]] mercenary unit.<ref>''Turning Points: Tyrfing'', p. 18</ref>

−	The Seventh was usually stationed on the [[Free Worlds League]] border. It attacked Irian in January [[2842]], and two centuries later devastated the [[20th Marik Militia]] on [[Concord]] in December [[3048]].<ref name=FMLA68>''Field Manual: Lyran Alliance'', p. 68: "7th Donegal Guards Unit Profile"</ref>

−	In [[3068]] the unit was stationed on [[Loric]]. Loric was one of the worlds hit and was attacked by the League forces on the 2nd of September [[3068]] as part of [[Operation BROKEN FIST]].<ref name="J:FRp45">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 45: "The Jihad in Review"</ref> After the [[FWL]] victory, the remnants of the Seventh Donegal surrendered and were incarcerated in a makeshift POW camp until [[Tharkad]] and the [[LAAF]] High Command could be contacted.<ref name=SteinerLines>''Steiner Lines "Broken" Says Brett Aide''</ref>	+	In [[3076]] the Seventh was stationed on [[Lyons]] as part of the Coalition defenders. Also on the world were the [[6th Pesht Regulars]]. The Seventh, enraged by the thought of the Pesht Regulars exposing the citizens of Lyons to the [[Draconis Combine]]'s culture, attempted to eject the Sixth from Lyons. Though the Seventh Donegal appeared to have the upper hand the infighting couldn't be allowed by the Coalition.<ref>''Field Report: LAAF'', p. 11</ref> The fighting was ended by [[General]] [[Belle Lee]], who arrived on Lyons two weeks after the initial fighting started.

Along with the [[12th Atrean Dragoons]], the [[Devil's Brigade]], and the [[11th Mechanized Cavalry (Clan Hell's Horses)|11th Mechanized Cavalry Cluster]], the Seventh invaded [[Hsien]]. They started off well, facing only the Hsien [[Protectorate Militia]] and [[Hsien's Hotheads]], but the arrival of the [[4th McCarron's Armored Cavalry]] and [[4th Tau Ceti Rangers]] turned the fight into a three-way brawl. The Coalition commander was able to convince the [[CCAF]] forces to focus on the [[Word of Blake]] troops, but coordinated actions were impossible. The fighting reduced the Seventh to about half of its original strength.<ref>''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', pp. 78-79</ref>

−	Between [[3080]] and [[3085]] the Seventh Donegal Guards were reorganized as a [[Light Combat Team]] and used by the LCAF High Command to garrison various planets and train new soldiers and units.
