In 3058 the Nineteenth unsuccessfully bid against the 3rd Jaguar Cavaliers for for the right to attack Matamoras.
Operation Bulldog
During Operation Bulldog, the Nineteenth was among the few units who launched a counter-attack on the Draconis Combine to in an effort to stall the Inner Sphere offensive. However, this move had been anticipated, and the worlds hit were heavily defended and fortified.
The Nineteenth Striker attacked was driven off Pesht by sheer firepower and Matamoras by a guerrilla campagin waged by the First Free Worlds Guards, 2nd Night Stalkers and badly-armed civilians.
At least one survivor, an inexperienced MechWarrior piloting a Stormcrow joined the Smoke Jaguar forces that retreated to Huntress. In the subsequent reorganization of forces into provisional Clusters and Galaxies during the journey home, the Nineteenth was most likely disbanded.
