'''Elizabeth Vanga''' was the commanding officer of the [[Thirty-second Galedon Regulars]] as of [[3050]].<ref name=20YUp41/>

==History==
''[[Tai-sa]]'' Vanga, serving with the Thirty-second Galedon Regulars, was stationed on [[Huan]] in 3050.<ref name=20YUp41/> Following the [[Clan Invasion]], Vanga retained command of the Thirty-second Regulars and was stationed on [[Pesht]] by [[3054]].<ref name=ORp28>''Objective Raids'', p. 28: "DCMS Deployment Table - 3054"</ref> 

Many [[Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery]] observers saw the appointment of a female commander to a unit as inexperienced as the Thirty-second Galedon to be a clear sign that it would not be used in active combat and was thus doomed to unimportance. Instead, Vanga's emphasis on close-order drills, clean machinery, and dress uniforms transformed the Thirty-second Galedon into a renowned show unit. Vanga's efforts increased the Thirty-second Galedon's reputation with planetary rulers and senior officers while simultaneously increasing her soldiers' morale and self-confidence. By [[3059]], Vanga's Regulars were still stationed on Pesht on orders from [[Coordinator of the Draconis Combine|Coordinator]] [[Theodore Kurita (31st c.)|Theodore Kurita]]—an honorable posting that was seen as the first step towards combat duties.<ref name=FMDCp67>''Field Manual: Draconis Combine'', p. 67: "32nd Galedon Regulars Unit Profile"</ref>
