==History==
=== FedCom Civil War ===
Formed after the [[Refusal War]] as a part of [[Tau Galaxy (Clan Wolf)|Tau Galaxy]], which had been raised to act as a garrison force, the '''Fifth Wolf Garrison Cluster''' and the other units of Tau Galaxy spent [[3065]] and [[3066]] engaged in battles with both [[Clan Fire Mandrill]] and [[Clan Ice Hellion]], as a means of testing themselves.<ref name=FM:Up53>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 53, "Tau Galaxy"</ref>

=== Wars of Reaving ===
In November 3067 Tau Galaxy defended the Wolf enclaves on [[Tiber(Clan system)|Tiber]], [[Roche]], [[Dagda (Clan System)|Dagda]], [[Paxon]] and [[Hoard]].<ref name=FM:Up75/> The [[Red Keshik (Clan Wolf)|Red Keshik]] faced [[Clan Hell's Horses]] in a [[Trial of Possession]] on Tiber in December. The Keshik broke ''[[zellbrigen]]'' and the Horses annihilated them with four Clusters and took most of the planet.<ref>'' The Wars of Reaving'', p. 32</ref> In 3071 the remaining [[Star]] of the [[7th Wolf Dragoon (Clan Wolf)|Seventh Wolf Dragoons]] on Dagda was attacked and destroyed by [[Clan Cloud Cobra]].<ref>'' The Wars of Reaving'', p. 67</ref> In December 3071 the last remaining Wolf enclave fell and the last Wolf warriors in the Home Worlds were wiped out by orbital bombardment from the [[Clan Steel Viper]] [[WarShip]] ''[[Snake Leader]]''.<ref name="WORp83">''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 83</ref> The only element of Tau known to have survived the Wars was the [[6th Wolf Garrison (Clan Wolf)|Sixth Wolf Garrison Cluster]], which arrived on [[Wheel]] in the Clan Occupation Zone during the early stages of the [[Jihad]].<ref>''Field Report: Clans'', p. 20</ref>

=== Dark Age ===
The Fifth was re-formed and reassigned from Tau Galaxy to [[Kappa Galaxy (Clan Wolf)|Kappa Galaxy]] at some point during the [[Dark Age]]. Kappa Galaxy underwent an expansion between the 3090s and 3130 after decades of being used as a training formation by the [[Rasalhague Dominion]] and developing a reputation for the devious use of conventional forces because of the shortage of [[BattleMech]]s within Kappa. Assigned to garrison duties during [[Operation HAMMERFALL]], the creation of the Wolf Empire led to the need to form new garrison [[Galaxy|Galaxies]], and the Fifth and the other units of Kappa were again subject to a winnowing out of 'Mechs and warriors as it was felt that their personnel would be ideal for managing the honorless Spheroid personnel being incorporated into the new formations.<ref name="FM:3145p160"/>

By [[3145]] the Fifth and the other elements of Kappa were operating at barely above half-strength as a result of the loss of personnel and equipment, but the peace treaty between the reborn [[Free Worlds League]] and the Wolf Empire meant that it was unlikely they would be called upon to deal with a major conflict.<ref name="FM:3145p160"/>
