The field of operation for the 22nd is very wide, but mostly serve as a supportive infantry unit for the naval forces. Specialization in boarding of hostile positions, recon of non hospitable planets/asteroids and internal defence of stations and vessels of the Liberty Military and its allies are among the most common use of the 22nd. Since it does have a number of operational naval vessels, it also serves as a limited naval combat support unit, but being very small, is very dependable on a larger naval force and usually canno't take part in a naval engagement by itself.
The 22nd Starforce Regiment is under the leadership of general Isabelle Kaitlyn.
General Isabelle Kaitlyn is the commander of the Western Libertonian Army, established at California Minor, headquarter L-6.
22nd Regiment Battalions "Snowtroopers"
Famous star force infantry battalions and backbone of the 22nd Regiment. Many of the unit's ethnical group consist of OE-CA (2)OE-FR, the group-code for Old Earth French Canadian. The reason for this are multiple;
-The bulk of the Eastern Army comes from the lower class population of California Minor and planet Los Angels.
-Many of the first settlers of the Californian system, specifically California Minor but also multiple selected regions on Los Angel, were Canadians, following the California Water Asteroid Project Act signed between the Liberty Government, Planetform Corporation and the representatives of the Canadian Minority, who were promised a land to establish their own culture and tradition. Drawn by the prospect of rich underground ressources and water exploitation, a large Canadian population, especially french canadian, established on the planet in terraformation. (The english canadian population tended to prefer planet Los Angels due to general greater financial ease comparatively with the french population. This is explained by the french population more isolationist approach to the general Libertonian people.)
-The extremely harsh conditions on planet California Minor made its colonists hardened people over the generations. A poor conservation of Synth Paste in the very low temperature also forces its people to consume natural food only, which as a consequence make the Californian Minor population the most healthy and fit of all Liberty.
-Due to very slow terraformation progress, only few mineral deposit has been found yet despite the years. However, California Minor grew a life by itself, as the first settlers hardly had the ways to leave their new home after establishment. With its own industries nowaday, its people are among the poorest of Liberty, hence explaining a large percentage of enlistment within the Liberty Military.
Having for the greater part been since their birth in a hostile environement, the Snowtroopers comes naturally with survivor instinct, which makes them very efficient recon troopers. The numerous succesful participations of the Snowtroopers in rescue operation is to be noted as well.
Isabelle Kaitlyn' ethnical group herself is OE-CA (2)OE-FR.
