The Red Lancers trace their origins all the way back to the formation of the 2nd Hexare Lancers in 2355. Following their instrumental role in crushing the revolt of the Merik's Grenadiers that saw the suicide of Chancellor Duncan Liao, they were renamed the Red Lancers by Jasmine Liao in 2452.

It's certainly a striking unit emblem; one doesn't have to look very far to see another Liao that may be interested in the iconography.

Finally a good ISN News flash I understand.

This one I like. The Red Heart Guard is a great unit.

Honor is forged through the furnace of mutually shared discipline and personal sacrifice for the needs of the whole.

I raise a pint of good Sapporo Beer for the Red Lancers. When we've all finished our tasks here, I'll see you in hell!

I'm just reading the Liao Sourcebook at the moment, and only just read past the Red Lancers section. Spooky.
