History[edit]

Operation Revival[edit]

Wave Two[edit]

At the conclusion of Wave Two saKhan Sarah Weaver petitioned for and was granted permission by ilKhan Leo Showers to bring forward the Garrison Clusters to hold the recently captured worlds.[1] Other units from Zeta Galaxy are known to have entered the Inner Sphere at this time[2] and it is likely that the 189th Garrison Cluster was with them.

Post-Tukayyid[edit]

The Cluster was listed as being stationed on Schwartz in 3054.[3] In 3058, the old Star League cruiser Manassas arrived in the Schwartz system. As the Jaguar naval assets secured the vessel a ComStar Explorer Corps team infiltrated the planet and engaged in a number of hit and run actions against the garrison. At this point the Cluster had been receiving relatively few supplies and its equipment was in poor condition.[4]

Operation Bulldog[edit]

Wave Three[edit]

Schwartz
The Cluster was still deployed on Schwartz when the Inner Sphere attacked the occupation zone.[5] They offered only token resistance to the ComStar Eighty-fifth Division, the Third Night Stalkers and the Sixth Ghost Regiment before they retreated in good order along with the majority of Zeta Galaxy.[6][7]
