Although Combine uses most of its population to run its amazing global farms, its soldiers can rise to the occasion when called upon to do so.  Most of its military forces raise to serve as PDF on freshly-conquered worlds, so few of its field-deployed regiments survive their first campaign.    Others have served continually for Mankind, and have earned unique distinctions.
* 18th Combine Swords Fast Response Infantry Regiment “Greenblades”: One regiment has arisen above the rest to prove itself on Combine.  The 18th regiment has a lengthy history of serving as the buccaneer-hunters of choice for the Thimble Subsector, which has long had issues with raider armies intercepting Coriolis goods or Combine foodstuffs.  The 18th use Tauros and Venator vehicles for great maneuverability, similar to an airdrop regiment, but also use many variants of Salamander Scouts and Sentinels.  This combination of speedy, small-silhouette vehicles makes them perfect for catching and surrounding raider forces, and they have managed to prevent hundreds of thousands of tons of Imperial goods from falling into the hands of criminals, as well as capturing hundreds of traitorous humans for Servitorization on Cognomen.  This regiment has the highest number of ordained Battle Chaplains of any regiment in the Sector as a percentage of its headcount, with Chaplains sometimes attached as low in the command chain as squad or platoon level.  It has over two hundred Chaplains total, all of them graduates of the Ecclesiarchal self-defense training programs on Jodhclan’s Paradise.
