Xin Sheng Campaign
Between 3063 and 3067 the Wild Ones raided Tsingtao, Remshield, Foot Fall, and Jonathan. They hoped to provoke a response from the AFFS but no such response occurred.[1]
Jihad
In 3069 the Third Armored Cavalry assaulted Taygeta alongside both St. Ives Lancers regiments. They drove the 3rd Ceti Hussars and Vanguard Legion off-world and took the world for the Confederation. This provided a key jump-off point for an assault on New Syrtis.[2]
Officers
As of 3063 the commanding officer was Sang-shao Otto Kung. He was still in command in 3067.[3] He was also part of the drive to New Syrtis.[2]
Tactics
The command uses their assets to best use. First the mechs secure territory and the armor defended it. The CO seek the decision in an final assaults if the tide of battle change to the worse (in his mind).
