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|L`Annan]] herself. | The 1st Legion has been at the forefront of many an Imperial campaign and training exercise, in joint taskings with the 1st Fleet.
