History
As of 3025 the 3rd Benjamin Regulars were primarily assigned to bolster the defense of the important world of Irurzun along side the 6th Benjamin Regulars and three Infantry regiments. [2] During this time the Third also participated in the Galtor campaign[3]
During the Fourth Succession War, the Third was assigned with the the Sixth Benjamin Regulars and twenty infantry and tank regiments to attack the 1st Chisholm's Raiders RCT on Deshler. [4] While the Raiders consistently outmaneuvered the invaders, the Kurita taskforce had superior numbers, slowly but progressively wearing the Davion unit down. When the Combine offensive swept past Deshler the AFFS attempted to pull their unit out, but the Chisholm Raiders chose to stay and fight, tying up the Combine units for months before being effectively destroyed. [5]
The Third was destroyed during the FedCom Civil War.
Officers
During 3025 the Commanding Officer of the Third was Brigadier General Jakodo Naguchido.
