These two standard combat units are into their 2nd lifecycle phase. Successfully completing training and moving out of the Accrue Phase, they have been funnelled into Sector HQ-6 for standby to be moved into a operational sector when required.
The stock is kept in static guard rotations within the many confines of the HQ complex. It is unlikely that units would ever lay eyes on Vanessa herself, but they were treated to a viewing of their command units behaviour.
If you take note of Masquerade Ball, Major Standard Ahna moves them out of Vanessa's Board Room, onto mission with the others.
Even though they are very new (Less than 2 weeks active) and young (Both 18) Ahna knows that they need to be pushed towards Dispense to protect particular details about the inner workings of the company.
Even though deliberately sending Units to be expended seems bad, the fact is that other units would have been in that position anyways.
So Ahna seen to it that they should not see out longer than a month of Active Utilization with a view to protect the company and its information.
More importantly, hide the behaviour of her mistress, Vanessa.
