That you so much for looking, that's really interesting! For awhile we were under the impression it was a psychiatric term, we had no idea it came from the Troops! That's especially interesting that it came from front line, and makes a lot of sense.
What sparked this for me was when we were looking at the Pavilion site hosted on Karitas, while it looks like front was correctly cited, I noticed "Fronting" was credited to Shaytar. We couldn't find anything on their website when we looked, but I also know they have other online presences and I'm not familiar with that outside of their essays.
Out of curiosity too I decided to check alt.support.dissociation where it's archived in Google groups and it looks like it was first used very sporadically around 1996-1998, and I'm not sure if that tracks with Shaytar being credited as the coiner for fronting specifically.
