At some point after [[3053]] the unit was working for the [[Explorer Corps (ComStar)|Explorer Corps]] when they mutinied in a dispute over pay and conditions. With their BattleMechs they attempted to pressure the local Kurita commander into returning them to the [[Inner Sphere]]. The commander responded by ordering his [[DEST]] team into action. The DEST team first captured the Cavalry's technical support team, abd then took down then eight 'Mechs thanks to their superb knowledge of BattleMech and infantry tactics. The twelve-man team disabled all the mercenary 'Mechs, while losing only two of its own personnel. The surviving mercenaries suffered summary execution, and the DEST team appropriated their equipment to continue the mission.<ref name=ecp25/>
