History

In the Fourth Succession War they attacked Tikonov with the other Crucis Lancer RCTs. After securing the planet, they moved on to attack Tigress with the 3rd Crucis Lancers. Once Tigress fell, the 2nd Crucis remained to garrison the planet.[1]

At the start of the FedCom Civil War, the homeworld of the 2nd Crucis Lancers was Timbiqui. During the FedCom Civil War the Second Crucis Lancers joined Victor Steiner-Davion, but he quickly reassigned them to counter the Jade Falcon Incursion as part of Operation Audacity. This gave them a lot of Clan salvage.[2] After returning to the Federated Suns, they were stationed on Pitkin.[3]

Officers

As of 3062 the commanding officer was General Anne Sung. In 3067 General Julius Gramstad commanded the 2nd Crucis Lancers.[4]
