Academy staff members are required to hold a commission in the [[AFFS]], either active duty or retired.<ref name=FMFS134/> ===First Succession War=== During the First Succession War, the first Sakhara Academy Training Battalions were formed after [[2786]] and prior to [[2821]]. At the time there were six training battalions. The Fifth Sakhara Training Battalion was destroyed in [[2794]]. The remaining five training battalions were stationed throughout the Draconis March.<ref name=fswp134/> ===Civil War=== The Sakhara Academy training battalion wasn't involved in the [[FedCom Civil War]].<ref>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 136, "Unit Profile"</ref> ===Jihad=== The Sakhara Academy Training Battalion violated orders and accompanied the [[2nd Robinson Rangers]] in to [[Draconis Combine]] space, assaulting [[Benjamin]].<ref>''Total Chaos'', p. 115</ref> As a result, the Academy's combat charter was revoked by [[Tancred Sandoval]]. It was only in [[3079]] that the unit was reestablished.<ref>''Field Report: AFFS'', p. 19</ref> [[Marshal (rank)|Marshal]] [[Jon Davion]], a graduate of the Sakhara Academy, was the driving force behind the Academy receiving its charter. To reflect the changing times, the training battalion added officer training for conventional armor, battle armor, and AeroSpace units. In addition the Academy created a training camp for enlisted armor and infantry soldiers. These trainees are commanded by cadets from the Sakhara Academy when in the field, and serve as infantrymen and armor crews. After a year in the Academy's enlisted training battalion, these soldiers are promoted to a front line unit with the rank of [[Corporal]]. The program has worked so well that the [[Goshen War College Training Battalion]] was authorized to copy the program.<ref>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 68</ref> ===Dark Age=== During the [[Draconis Combine]] invasion of the Draconis March, the [[Seventh Ghost Regiment]] landed on Sakhara V. They faced the Sakhara Academy battalion and lost all their infantry and a third of their 'Mech forces. After the Ghost's commander died of a heart attack, the Sakhara Academy faced [[Takeji Yoshizawa]] who used VTOLs to flank them. The green Academy battalion members were routed, with only a company able to withdraw to the Academy grounds. The next day, that company was destroyed.<ref>''Technical Readout: 3145 Draconis Combine'', p. 20</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 Sakhara Academy Training Battalion''' |- | [[Kommandant]]||[[Elkin Odds]]||[[3050]]<ref name=20Yp19>''20 Year Update'', p. 19, "AFFC Deployment Table - 3050"</ref><ref name=ORp13>''Objective Raids'', p. 13, "AFFC Deployment Table - 3054"</ref> |- | [[Colonel]]||Elkin Odds||[[3067]]<ref name=FMFS134>''Field Manual: Federated Suns'', p. 134, "Sakhara Academy Training Battalion Unit Profile"</ref><ref name=FMUp141>''Field Manual: Update'', p. 141, "AFFS Deployment Table - 3067"</ref> |- | [[Major General]]||[[Carissa Sable]]||[[3085]]<ref name=FM3085p72>''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 72, "AFFS Deployment Table - 3085"</ref> |- |} ==Tactics== Unknown. ==Composition History== ===2821=== '''First Sakhara Academy Training Battalion''' (Battalion/Green/Reliable)<ref name=fswp134/> :Note: At this point in time the command was a light-weight unit stationed on [[Crossing]].<ref name=fswp134/> '''Second Sakhara Academy Training Battalion''' (Battalion/Green/Questionable)<ref name=fswp134/> :Note: At this point in time the command was a heavy-weight unit stationed on [[Xhosa VII]].<ref name=fswp134/> '''Third Sakhara Academy Training Battalion''' (Battalion/Regular/Quesitonable)<ref name=fswp134/> :Note: At this point in time the command was a medium-weight unit stationed on [[Bremond]].<ref name=fswp134/> '''Fourth Sakhara Academy Training Battalion''' (Battalion/Green/Questionable)<ref name=fswp134/> :Note: At this point in time the command was a medium-weight unit stationed on [[Crossing]].<ref name=fswp134/> '''Sixth Sakhara Academy Training Battalion''' (Battalion/Green/Questionable)<ref name=fswp134/> :Note: At this point in time the command was a medium-weight unit stationed on [[Boeotia]].<ref name=fswp134/> ===3040=== ''' Sakhara Academy Training Battalion''' (Battalion/Green/Reliable )<ref name = HWo3039p137/> :Note: At this point in time the command was stationed on [[Sakhara V]]. <ref name =HWo3039p137 >''Historical: War of 3039'', p. 137 </ref> ===3050=== '''Sakhara Academy Training Battalion''' (Battalion/Green/Reliable) <ref name = 20yup19/> :* CO: Kommandant [[Elkin Odds]] <ref name = 20yup19/> :Note: At this point in time the command was stationed on [[Sakhara V]]. <ref name = 20yup19>''20 Year Update'', p. 19</ref> ===3054=== '''Sakhara Academy Training Battalion''' (Battalion/Green/Reliable) <ref name = OpjRp13/> :* CO: Kommandant Elkin Odds <ref name = OpjRp13/> :Note: At this point in time the command was stationed on [[Sakhara V]]. <ref name = OpjRp13>''Objective Raids'', p. 13</ref> ===3062=== '''Sakhara Academy Training Battalion''' ([[Battalion]]/Green/Reliable)<ref name=FMFS134/> * CO: [[Kommandant]] Elkin Odds - Approximately one-third of the equipment fielded by the battalion is brought to the academy by cadets who wish to train in their family's 'Mech. ===3067=== '''Sakhara Academy Training Battalion''' (Regular/Fanatical)<ref name=FMUp141/> * CO: Colonel Elkin Odds ===3079=== '''Sakhara Academy Training Battalion ''' (Battalion/Green/Fanatical) <ref name =“fraffs18“>'' Field Report: AFFS'' , p. 18</ref> : Note: At this point in time the unit was stationed on [[Sakhara]].<ref name=“fraffs18“/> ===3085=== '''Sakhara Academy Training Battalion''' (Green/Fanatical)<ref name=FM3085p72/> * CO: Major General [[Carissa Sable]] ==References== <references /> ==Bibliography== * ''[[20 Year Update]]'' * ''[[Field Manual: 3085]]'' * ''[[Field Manual: Federated Suns]]'' * ''[[Field Manual: Update]]'' * ''[[Field Report: AFFS]]'' * ''[[First Succession War (sourcebook)]]'' * ''[[Historical: War of 3039]]'' * ''[[Objective Raids]]'' * ''[[Technical Readout: 3145 Draconis Combine]]'' [[Category:Federated Suns Training Commands|Sakhara Academy Training Battalion]] [[Category:Federated Commonwealth Training Commands|Sakhara Academy Training Battalion]]
