== History ==
=== The Dark Age ===
Formed in [[3128]], the '''Third Fronc Cuirassiers''' were established as a part of the [[Fronc Reaches Sentinels]] [[brigade]] because the [[Fronc Reaches]] was expanding rapidly through colonization.<ref name="FM:3145p199">''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 199, "Fronc Reaches"</ref>

Whereas the two sister units to the Third Cuirassiers, the [[1st Fronc Cuirassiers|First]] and [[2nd Fronc Cuirassiers|Second Fronc Cuirassiers]] were both operating in small unit formations by the mid-thirty-second century the preferred doctrine of the Third was to keep the various branches of the unit - the Third Fronc Air Wing, Third Fronc Armor and Third Fronc Infantry - distinct and separate, mixing them only as [[company|companies]] on the various worlds the Third was assigned to.<ref name="FM:3145p199"/>

In [[3145]] one of the worlds garrisoned by the Third, [[Appian]], was the target of a substantial number of [[pirate]] raids; the commanding officer of the Third, [[Colonel]] [[Moe Routhier]], made a point of rotating the elements of his command through Appian on a regular basis, both to reduce the effects of attrition and to ensure that the entire unit maintained its edge.<ref name="FM:3145p199"/>
