The 7th Army is one of the newest armies of the Imperial Confederation's Imperator Corps, established in 862 ABY to protect the Confederation's expanded borders. Most of its enlisted and non-commissioned ranks are fresh out of the academy and have yet to be tested in combat. However, many of the 7th Army's commissioned officers and nearly its entire senior ranks are combat veterans, bringing much needed experience to the army command. Furthermore, many members of the 7th's general staff are former officers of FN-999's distinguished 908th Legion who followed their commander into the Imperial Confederation, each bringing a decade or more of battlefield experience to the 7th.
Under the tutelage of these capable officers, General FN-999 hopes to nurture the lower ranks into an elite unit capable of being molded into a devastating hammer for the Imperial Confederacy.
