=== Operation BULLDOG ===
 
Around the same time as [[Operation BULLDOG]], the First Sirian Lancers led the way in the liberation of the [[Sirian Holds]] from the crazed Alexander Gyrn. After seeing the atrocities that occurred on the world, the First Sirian Lancers were critical of the Free Worlds League and Captain-General. This led to a downgraded reliability rating. These bad feelings also led several members of the First to get into fistfights and brawls with their fellow garrison unit, the [[37th Marik Militia]].<ref>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 154</ref>
