−	The St. Ives Armored Cavalry was formed as the military force of the [[St. Ives Mercantile Association]]. When that polity joined the [[Capellan Confederation]], the Armored Cavalry became the provincial force for the St. Ives Commonality. Prior to the Confederation's creation, each member world of the Mercantile Association was responsible for raising and equipping its own Armored Cavalry unit. This led to a series of units that were tactically skilled and highly motivated, but lacked any real strategic coordination with their fellow regiments. The formation of the Confederation allowed the Strategios to rectify this shortcoming, and the St. Ives Armored Cavalry quickly became one of the best units in the CCAF.<ref name=fr2765ccp14/>	+	The St. Ives Armored Cavalry was formed as the military force of the [[St. Ives Mercantile Association]].

−	During the [[Jihad]], the First and Second St. Ives Lancers counterattacked [[Federated Suns]] units that participated in [[Operation SOVEREIGN JUSTICE]].<ref>''Field Report: CCAF'', p. 18</ref> The various regiments of the St. Ives Armored Cavalry proved their loyalty to the [[Chancellor]] and the [[Capellan Confederation]] with their actions in the Jihad, and while the SIAC remained apart from the regular [[CCAF]] military because of their St. Ives origins, by [[3081]], they were once more one of the premiere assault commands of the Confederation. However, there was a degree of internal tension within the SIAC because of the stance [[Kai Allard-Liao]] took regarding the [[Republic of the Sphere]]; in calling for peace between the states he set himself apart from the attitude of the bulk of the brigade, who were keenly anticipating orders from the Chancellor to attack the Republic and reclaim Capellan worlds. Allard-Liao's stance prompted calls from those within his personal command, the [[1st St. Ives Lancers]], for him to stand down; it was notable that many felt that Allard-Liao's stance was due to emotional exhaustion after years of combat, rather than an act of treachery or disloyalty.<ref name="J:FRp99">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 99: "The St. Ives Armored Cavalry"</ref>	+	During the [[Jihad]] the First and Second St. Ives Lancers counterattacked [[Federated Suns]] units that participated in [[Operation SOVEREIGN JUSTICE]].<ref>''Field Report: CCAF'', p. 18</ref> The various regiments of the St. Ives Armored Cavalry proved their loyalty to the [[Chancellor]] and the [[Capellan Confederation]] with their actions in the Jihad, and while the SIAC remained apart from the regular [[CCAF]] military because of their St. Ives origins, by [[3081]] they were once more one of the premiere assault commands of the Confederation.

−	In [[3085]], the Armored Cavalry has been fully reintegrated into the [[CCAF]].
