56th Dasim of Eayn Dragoons

The 56th Dasim of Eayn Dragoons was a legion of Kig-Yar soldiers that was organized under the Select Fleet of Tempered Resolve. Its commanding officer was Generalissmo Chur'R-Sul.

History
The Dragoons were commanded by a Sangheili warrior that hailed from a clan that did not actually wage war in a generation, and as a result was lacking the practical experience needed to command the unit. Generalissmo Chur'R-Sul took advantage of this by justifying her abuse of the recruits as instilling Shon'ai in them by turning them into fearless, merciless killers.

The Dragoons were active by at least 2537. They participated in the Battle of Fairfax II in 2542, where they were deployed in the vanguard on an assault against a highly-fortified coastal refinery along with seven other legions, and took horrific casualties against the well-protected UNSC forces.

Composition
The 56th Dasim of Eayn Dragoons were a legion-sized unit of air-mobile infantry, similar in purpose to the UNSC's mechanized infantry battalions. It was composed of four maniples, with two of these being infantry units that were supported by a mixture of Phantoms and ground transports. The last two formations were merely composed of infantry grounds with aerial transports, which were only designed to deploy their troops rather than stay and offer aerial support.
