The 101st Pesht Guard Regiment was a Infantry based combat unit that was in the service of the Draconis Combine's Armed Forces. The command was made up principally of conventional infantry which was augmented by some airborne combat vehicles and conventional aircraft formations.
History
The unit had been attached to the 6th Pesht Regulars not long prior to the Clan Invasion. They developed close working ties with the Regulars' 3rd company[1], regardless of growing friction between 3rd company and the rest of the regiment.[2]. Later in history, when the 'Mech Regiment been divided by reassigning of Regulars 2nd company on Land's End, Guards would be left on Qandahar with 3rd company and rest of regiment.[3]
As with their parent unit, the 101st Guards had no active role in the early Jihad and would remain stranded on Qandahar. Later they were transferred to Kaznejoy as an deterrent against raids by Davion troops from the Draconis March. In 3076, not long before Operation SCOUR regiment could taken part in clashes with the Lyran 7th Donegal Guards on planet Lyons.[4]. After that incident, the 6th Regulars were sent back to Pesht.[5].
