When [[Commanding General of the Star League Defense Force|Commanding General]] [[Aleksandr Kerensky]] arranged to meet with the remaining members of the SLDF High Command and his task force commanders on the recently-liberated world of [[Talitha]] in November [[2774]]. With Talitha on the front lines, close to two major [[Amaris Empire Armed Forces]] strongholds, Kerensky and the other senior officers traveled discretely, and Kerensky charged the Fifth Army - commanded at the time by General [[Kim Solheim]] - in charge of conference security. Despite a handful of minor attacks on the base by Amaris' loyalists, the conference went off without a hitch.<ref name="H:LOTv2p29">''Historical: Liberation of Terra Volume 2'', pp. 29–30: "Inside Looking In"</ref>
