Line 19: The Regulars played host to two notable leaders in this time: [[Hendrik Grimm]] and [[Henry DeCalidore]]. Grimm was once a rising star in the LCAF, but his behavior became increasingly unstable. While his ties to House Steiner saved him from a court martial, they could not save his career, and he went from a battalion commander in the prestigious [[Third Lyran Guards]] to commanding the [[Sixth Lyran Regulars]]. Though the posting on [[Graham IV]] was considered "safe," a Marik force slipped over the border and attacked the world. Grimm believed the Archon had abandoned him and decided to lead his unit into piracy. After adding defectors from the damaged [[Fifth Lyran Regulars]], the unit disappeared into the Periphery, and was used by Grimm to set himself up as king of the [[Oberon Confederation]].
