''Tai-sa'' '''Rikuto Himura''' was the commanding officer of the [[Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery]]'s [[301st Armor]], [[5th Sword of Light|Fifth Sword of Light]], from at least [[3144]] to [[3145]].<ref name=FM3145>''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 66</ref><ref name=RG25>''Recognition Guide: ilClan, vol. 25'', p. 4</ref>

==History==
Himura was in charge of the 301st Armor during the [[Palmyra Disaster]] in 3144, during which his unit lost more than a [[Battalion]] in forces to [[Federated Suns]] [[artillery]]. Attempting to destroy the offending artillery unit, after their location was spotted by DCMS [[VTOL]]s, Himura tasked a [[platoon]] of [[Bulldog|Bulldog medium tanks]] under ''[[Tai-i]]'' [[Diego Hamlin]] to attack them. The artillery battery however managed to escape, its fight covered by a defending Davion [[Demolisher|Demolisher heavy tank]].<ref name=RG25></ref>

Subsequently, by December 3145, Himura and the 301st Armor were garrisoning [[Monroe]].<ref name=FM3145></ref>
