Yellow Jackets

The Yellow Jackets emerged as a distinct Chapter after the terror-filled era of the Horus Heresy. During the great purge, when the Imperium was still busing driving the Traitor Legions of the wretched Warmaster Horus towards the Eye of Terror, the Yellow Jackets were cut off from the bulk of Imperial forces. The Chapter began a campaign of hit-and-run attacks launched from Thunderhawk Gunships. The sudden appearance of these warriors pinned down and paralyzed vast enemy forces and fear of their retribution prevented many a planetary Governor from going over to the side of Chaos. In the ages since, the Yellow Jackets have continued to serve the Emperor of Mankind with distinction, including their heroic stand against Warlord Graznik and his mighty Ork Waaagh! ==Chapter Appearance==

The right knee is painted in the company colour and the squad number is dedicated by a roman numeral.
