1st Kathil Uhlans

Template:InfoBoxStateUnit

Formed in 3029 from elements of the Davion Light Guards and the remnants of two destroyed regiments, the 1st Kathil Uhlans were one of the Federated Suns' most respected units, serving with distinction from the Fourth Succession War until their effective destruction during Operation Serpent. Even after he assumed command of the AFFC as whole, the Uhlans were considered the personal unit of Morgan Hasek-Davion, their first Commanding Officer.

History

Raised by Morgan Hasek-Davion in 3029 from Delta Company of the Davion Light Guards under the command of Captain Andrew Redburn, the survivors of the 5th Syrtis Fusiliers, and the Kathil CMM. Their formation was part of a last ditch effort to fend off a Capellan raid intended to cripple Kathil's shipyards. The unit took heavy damage in the operation, where they faced elements of the Death Commandos and the 4th Tau Ceti Rangers, but emerged victorious.

Almost immediately after the battle, the Uhlans travelled to Sian to extract the Justin Allard, the spy who had warned of the impending attack on Kathil. Besides picking up Allard, the Uhlans also extracted Alexi Mallory and Candace Liao.

In 3059 they formed were part of Task Force Serpent and assaulted Clan world of Huntress in the following year.

After the heavy losses on Huntress the unit was dissolved in 3062 and most of its members joined the newly founded SLDF-1st Royal Battlemech Regiment.
