The unit, stationed on the province capital world of [[Skye]] was known to have leanings towards the [[Free Skye]] separatist movement. ==History== ===Formation and First Battle=== The First Skye Jaegers were the first of the Jaeger units to reach regiment strength. The unit like all Jaeger units proved its loyalties to then Archon [[Katrina Steiner-Davion]]. It showed the Jaeger military concept proved workable, paving way for the other units of its kind, with itself became combat ready in [[3060]]. In [[3062]], the unit saw its first combat against the [[15th Dieron Regulars]], on the Lyran-occupied world of [[Ko]].<ref>''Path of Glory'', p. 64</ref> The reprisal raid against the 15th's base after elements of the Regulars raided [[Skye]] earlier that year. The Jaegers bloodied the nose of the 15th, before returning to Skye. The actions of the regiment triggered that Ko other worlds of the [[Lyons Thumb]] to be officially annexed by the [[Draconis Combine]]. This caused shortages of supplies, increasing red tape by the [[LAAF]] command, preventing the regiment to fully rebuild.<ref name=FMLA53>''Field Manual: Lyran Alliance'', p. 53: "1st Skye Jaegers Unit Composition"</ref> For their actions on Ko, Skye Jaegers been awarded by unique banner with a depiction of the Draconis Combine dragon being throttled by a Steiner Fist. After the [[FedCom Civil War]] [[Archon]] [[Peter Steiner-Davion]] removed the dragon and fist emblem, but left the ribbon active. ===FedCom Civil War and Free Skye=== Despite being vilified by Lyran media, many members of the separatist Free Skye starting joining the Skye Jaegers because of the raid. Many of the Free Skye communities on Ko were killed, seen as martyrs. Despite the [[LIC]] trying filter loyal Lyran citizens from joining the unit, many a member of the Free Skye movement joined the Jaegers.{{cn}} Connections of Skye Jaegers with rebel Movement has drawn sanctions from [[11th Lyran Regulars]], dispatched by General Nondi Steiner to investigate case. By sudden attack onto disembarking Regulars, Free Skye forces threw out loyalist regiment from capital into bogs. Two left battalions of loyalists left Skye, but left some commandos behind to wreak chaos. Less than in a year the roles been exchanged. Arrived famous [[11th Arcturan Guards]] battlegroup drawn Jaegers into same bogs and MacIntosh Valley, and then in guerrilla war all over the New Scotland continent.{{cn}} Urgently recalled by General Dundee [[4th Skye Rangers]] grant Jaegers a respite, and timely arrived call from General Nondi Steiner - salvation. The [[11th Arcturan Guards]] battle group was recalled to [[Tharkad]].{{cn}} As 3067, Jaegers had less than half from previous numbers, but they were still followers of Free Skye Movement.{{cn}} ===Jihad=== The First Skye Jaegers took a very active role in most phases of Jihad. By taking an active part in [[Operation BROKEN FIST|Operation ÜBERSCHATTEN]], they took [[Gallatin]], but later been shattered by FWLM counterattack and retreated with the [[Skye Guards]].<ref name=jtph2p9/><ref>''Jihad Secrets: The Blake Documents'', pp. 21–22</ref> Some odd reports mentioned Preston as a place of battle for Jaegers and [[Langendorf Lancers]], but its mistake<ref>''Mercenaries Supplemental Update'', p. 82</ref> In 3074, again restored 1st Skye Jaegers liberated [[Hesperus II]] as a part of [[Devlin Stone]]'s Allied forces.<ref>''Jihad Secrets: The Blake Documents'', p. 42</ref> By 20 December, the Coalition forces were able to shatter the last Blakist fortification around the city, and the '''First Skye Jaegers''' conducted a daring nighttime combat drop onto the [[Fortieth Shadow Division]]'s positions, which though succeeded in finally driving them off, cost the unit a severe beating and the loss of several of his officers at the hands of [[Manei Domini]] [[Laodices]]. The Fortieth Shadow Division was able to withdraw under fire to their hidden DropShips before abandoning the planet.<ref>''Technical Readout: 3075'', p. 180</ref><ref name=jtph2p9>''Jihad Turning Points: Hesperus II'', p. 9: "First Skye Jaegers [Lyran Alliance] (November 3074–December 3074)"</ref> In the liberation of Hesperus II, the Skye Jaegers took some ''[[Galahad (BattleMech)|Galahad]]'' 'Mechs as trophies.<ref>''Jihad Hot Spots: 3076'', p. 47</ref> In 3075-76, the Jaegers were again battling with WoB on [[Galatea]] in a support role for [[ComStar]]'s [[79th Division (ComStar)|79th]] and [[103rd Division (ComStar)|103rd Divisions]].<ref>''Technical Readout: 3075'', p. 180</ref><ref>''Jihad Hot Spots: 3076'', p. 65</ref> ===Post-Jihad=== Following the [[Republic Formation Treaty]] and the subsequent incorporation of the vast majority of the former [[Skye Province]] into the [[Republic of the Sphere]], the Skye Jaegers surprised almost everyone when the bulk of the regiment elected to remain a part of the [[LAAF]], rather than joining the Republic. Even the LAAF quartermasters had expected the Jaegers to transfer into the Republic, to the extent that additional supplies for a "Going Away" party had already been issued to the regiment when it was announced they would remain in the Alliance. Undaunted, the Jaegers put the additional supplies to good use by holding a "Farewell to Blake" celebration.<ref name="J:FRp84">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 84: "The Defensive Situation"</ref> The Jaegers (short the third of the unit that joined the Republic) remained on Hesperus II, helping rebuild that world.<ref>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 103</ref> In [[3140]] elements of the Jaegers were assigned to garrison [[Tharkad]], including serving as the personal guard of the [[Archon]] when she was in the Royal Palace.<ref>''A Bonfire of Worlds'', p. 124</ref> ==Officers== {| class="wikitable" |- ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Rank ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Name ! scope="col" width="220" style="background: #dedede;" | Command |- | colspan="4" style="background: #efefef;" | '''Commanding Officers of the 1st Skye Jaegers''' |- | [[Colonel]]||[[Steve Pitcher]]||[[3062]] - [[3074]]<ref name=FMLA53/><ref name=FMUp177>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 177: "Lyran Alliance Deployment Table - 3067"</ref><ref name=jtph2p9/> |- | [[Hauptmann-General]]||[[Christian Campbell]]||[[3074]] - [[3085]]<ref name="frla9">''Field Report: LAAF'', p. 9: The Jaegers were placed under Campbell's command after being rebuilt</ref> |- | Colonel||Steve Pitcher||3085 -<ref name=FM3085p107>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 107: "Lyran Commonwealth Deployment Table - 3085"</ref> |} ==Tactics== The 1st Skye Jaegers employ general purpose defensive and offensive tactics.
