Actually Proserpina in the Draconis Combine along the Davion border did have a Star League Academy. However any SLDF personnel were likely returned or expelled while Kerensky was in the InnerSphere. No House would want to tick off the SLDF. Camps would be for natives who actively or were suspected of aiding the Last Cameron. Amity is actually in the FWL.

Handed over or grabbed by SAFE while Escape & Evading after the destruction of their regiment? (Even more fun given the current relationships)

Oops on Prosperina- didn't verify on a map which House it was in during the SL era.  Just checked the Kurita Sourcebook- among other things it helps if I spell it correctly as Takiro did...   But why on Earth would a Cameron go to school way out there?

  To my knowledge none did but if you make the Cameron family like the Davions or the Kuritas there are a lot of them and as members of the ruling house they may pop up all over the Sphere in diplomatic and economic functions or in the millitary.  Also remember going to school "abroad" may have the same attraction in thier eyes as it would in ours.  The Combine during the SL may simply be "exotic".  Look at it this way take your favorite house; list all the things you like about the culture, now imagine you are "Joe Shmoe-Cameron" 3018th line for the throne yopu have some assets and some family backing and can go pretty much any college your grades can get you in.  Now you've always liked (insert House)... What do you do?
  Of course this is why Amaris probably would not have been able to wipe out the entire ruling line.  There are just too many of them. 
  But lets not go there.

It seems all worlds in the inner sphere have a small repair/logistics base (the ability to repair/rearm between a lance and a company of mechs), but some worlds have repair bases able to handle and battalion or more of mechs at any one time.

Not at this time Ice, I would think they are far too numerous to be considered with. Right now you'd probably just target the means of production.

Which are probably as numerous or even more.
Targeting the big repair installations could give one a small advantage.

Negative, think about what your saying. Repair Bays are like Mechanic Shops albeit there might not be as many but Mech Factories are like Assembly Lines which are much less in number.

I was thinking about the big ones, like the one pictured in TRO 3025 not the small Repair Bays.

Right your thinking 3025 when large Repair Bays are attractive targets and not for destruction but capture. In 2785 these bays are much more plentiful and tactical rather than strategic concerns. It is likely most worlds have them and other high technology could devalue their target status.

Re-read the repair bay write up in TR3025- these were key targets, throughout the entire SW era.

Correct they were present on nearly every planet and were primery targets in any planetary invasion.

After all remove the defending units logistics and they'll be easyer to destroy in the field.

I believe Mech Repair Bays are Tactical targets rather than Strategic because they are found on tons of planets at this time. They aren't like a Mech factory on perhaps 1 out of every 10 systems say. There for I wouldn't include them.
