History
Operations and Missions
The 1st Legion has been at the forefront of many an Imperial campaign and training exercise, in joint taskings with the 1st Fleet. Most notably, elements of the 1st Legion were instrumental in securing the Ralltiir System in the Darpa Sector for the Galactic Empire in mid-Year 13, subsequently earning it the praise and recognition of the entire Empire, and, more importantly, the gratitude of His Majesty, Emperor Guinar Ndengin the First. For its actions in the Ralltiir theatre, every member of the 1st Brigade, the sub-unit deployed to secure the system, was granted the Unit Distinguished Service medal from Lord General Graeda L`Annan herself.
Name and Motto
The 1st Legion is traditionally known as the 'Immortals' within Army circles. This nickname origins from the Victory-class Star Destroyer Immortal, which served as the unit's flagship before the Army-Navy integration. However, the Legion earned its nickname by other means as well. 1st Legion soldiers are typically thrust into the heat of battle as the Empire's vanguard. Only their exceptional skills and courage allow them to survive the rigors of the beginning of the combat theatres in which they participate. The members of the 1st Legion are said to never die, but simply go to hell and regroup. This is the basis for their eternal moniker, which they display with pride.

The Legion's current motto, Live With Courage, Die With Honor, was suggested by one of its former COs, Ralkata Tyrran, when the Legion was under the command of Marcus Aurelius and his XO, Cliff Chan. It outstandingly reflects the life and combat style of all 1st Legion personnel, from Commissioned Officers to NCMs. The Empire's enemies can be assured that the 1st Legion has a well-deserved reputation of being absolutely relentless in striving to achieve battlefield supremacy.
