Jihad
During the Jihad the Sixteenth SZAC spent most of it's time traveling along the Combine-Ghost Bear Dominion border, including Idlewind and Kiamba. These trips were to deter any renegade Rasalhaugian units from raiding the Combine. At the same time, the more experienced warriors of the Sixteenth Cadre were shuttled to Kessel to replace losses suffered by the 5th Sun Zhang Academy Cadre. These warriors were replaced by new graduates from the Sun Zhang MechWarrior Academy.[3]
Officers
As of 3059 to 3067 the commanding officer is Tai-sa Fabier.[1][4]
As of 3085 the commanding officer was Tai-sa Iulian Ó'Floinn.[5]
Tactics
The commander of the air wing, Sho-sa Steve Johannson, trains the cadets in anti-aircraft tactics.[1]
