Aella Civil Defense Force
Headquarters: Dismas Military Depot, Aella, Durga System
Parent Unit: Central Command
Established: 2430 CE
Status: Active

The Aella Civil Defense Force is tasked with maintaining the security of Aella and other minor sites in the Durga System. It is comprised of three ground regiments, one of which is scattered through the Durga System as security for asteroid mines and for the asteroid colony Pedras, as well as an air defense wing, an air transport wing, and three orbital defense battalions dedicated to maintaining and operating anti-orbital defenses.

History

The Aella Civil Defense Force was established in 2430 CE, almost thirty years after the settling of Aella. Prior to that, Aella's security had been handled by the Colonial Security Force. In 2489 CE, the Aella Civil Defense Force's units on several of the outer asteroid mines were instrumental in repelling a series of attempted pirate raids.
