Victorian Mounted Rifles

rdfs:comment

The defectors, while numbering only nine, stole seven M12 Light Reconnaissance Vehicles, three armed with ninety millimeter recoilless rifles, and four armed with M41 Light Anti Aircraft Guns. Coming upon a Victorian Independent Underground State unit, the defectors surrendered, with their leader, Corporal Preston Reese, speaking to the rebels and describing their situation. Held and questioned for several days at a nearby rebel-sympathetic village that was used by the unit as a base of operations, the defectors were soon released and integrated, with their vehicles being used for quick hit-and-run attacks on UNSC supply convoys. The Victorian Mounted Rifles (VMR) was a regiment composed of Australian forces that served in the Second Boer War. It was first raised by Colonel Tom Price in the mid-1880s, composed of voluntary forces. It was composed of several contingents, the most notable being the 5th Victorian Mounted Rifles.

The Victorian Mounted Rifles (VMR) was a regiment composed of Australian forces that served in the Second Boer War. It was first raised by Colonel Tom Price in the mid-1880s, composed of voluntary forces. It was composed of several contingents, the most notable being the 5th Victorian Mounted Rifles. The defectors, while numbering only nine, stole seven M12 Light Reconnaissance Vehicles, three armed with ninety millimeter recoilless rifles, and four armed with M41 Light Anti Aircraft Guns. Coming upon a Victorian Independent Underground State unit, the defectors surrendered, with their leader, Corporal Preston Reese, speaking to the rebels and describing their situation. Held and questioned for several days at a nearby rebel-sympathetic village that was used by the unit as a base of operations, the defectors were soon released and integrated, with their vehicles being used for quick hit-and-run attacks on UNSC supply convoys. During the UNSC evacuation from the planet in 2537, the rebel unit, renamed from its original name of 'Mallowford Rifle Company' to 'Victorian Mounted Rifles', captured a convoy carrying seeds, harvested crops, and even some soil from the fertile province, to a nearby spaceport for transfer to the Inner Colonies. In the aftermath of the coup, in contrast to most other militia units, the Mounted Rifles remained fully active, with ninety-five personnel in its ranks.
