History

Formed as an household unit of the Stapelton's family in reaction to an raid of Marik forces, which killed a huge part of the ruling family of Excedor. The command was loanded to the CCAF with one goal to seed destruction among the FWL where ever possible. The first strike was in 3003 at Nam Dinh, an industrial center. Two years later at Fuentes, the Regulan Hussars learned the wraith of the Grenadier and the raid was successful with the destruction of many goods. In 3008 the the tides turned against the command. The CO received information of an easy target in form of 6 companies of Atrean Dragoons on Sorunda, but the Mariskova doesn't know that the information came from a double agent. The price for the retreat of world was terrible. Outnumbered three to one, the 3rd battlion sacrificed their lives to rescue the remaing to. The CO lost also her live during the battle. The rebuild was took along time. [1]

In the 4th Succession War the unit took moderate casualties in the failed defense of Tikonov. The remnants became later part of the 2nd Republican.
