History[edit]

The Jade Falcon Eyrie Cluster participated in the second phase of the Battle of Twycross.[1][2] After that time they were stationed on Götterdämmerung.[3]

Brutal fighting against the 341st Assault Cluster of Clan Wolf on Baker 3 in the 3057 Refusal War saw the Cluster take horrific casualties; only three Cadets survived the slaughter. Among them was Hansen, whom Khan Marthe Pryde promoted to Star Captain as a result of what was retroactively declared her Trial of Position.[4][5]

The 3058 Falcon Incursion saw the Eyrie deployed as the vanguard of the assault on Coventry, and included some personnel as young as thirteen years old. Due to the extremely young ages of its soldiers, the Cluster was nicknamed "The Sibko Cluster" by other Galaxy members.[6] Assigned the capture of the Coventry Military Academy and the siege of Leitnerton, the Eyrie took approximately fifty percent casualties in the campaign. The early fighting against the CMA and Coventry DMM was particularly damaging.[7]

In 3067 they were stationed on Blair Atholl.[8]
