History
Thirty-third Marik Militia was stationed on Loburg in 2786 and by 2821 they were on Cavanaugh II.[1]
Third Succession War
Around 3020 the Thirty-third Militia attacked Solaris. They landed using disguised DropShips, reaching their primary objectives they were hammered by the Lyran counter-attack. However, as the Militias fighters gradually lost air superiority the operation started to fail as the Thirty-third started to take heavy casualties. During a lull in the battle the 131st Battalion (Keshii's Battalion) was sent to attack the suburban hills area to draw away as many of the counter-attacking units as possible. The Battalion soon found itself taking heavy casualties as well from superior air power and Lyran assault units. The orders to retreat did not reach every command and Company B, the Swords of St. George, were cut off in a salient. When they finally attempted to retreat to their DropShips it was too late as these had already been captured.[2]
Officers
Colonel Drinkwater was in command in 3020.[2]
