History
The 189th was a part of the XIX Corps, Eighth Army, and in 2764 was assigned to District 1 of the Free Worlds League Military Region. The eruption of the New Vandenberg Uprising in 2765 caused many SLDF units to be mobilised into the periphery to assist in putting down the uprising and ensuing rebellion, with the remaining SLDF units redistributed to cover the resulting gaps. This resulted in the 189th being moved to District 3 of the FWLMR.[1]
The 189th survived the Hegemony Campaign, but didn't follow Aleksandr Kerensky on the Exodus; instead, the 189th joined the Capellan Confederation.[1]
Composition
As an SLDF Battle regiment the 189th would have been composed primarily of medium to heavy 'Mechs.[2]
