The '''First Falcon Hussars''' were assigned to [[Sigma Galaxy (Clan Jade Falcon)|Sigma Galaxy]] prior to the [[Refusal War]]. With the conclusion of that conflict and the rebuilding of the Falcon forces the Hussars were transferred to Gamma Galaxy. In [[3061]] they were part of the fighting in the Jade Falcon Occupation Zone against [[Clan Steel Viper]]. The Hussars fought in the deciding battle of the [[Hegira War]] on [[Waldorff]].<ref>''Falcon Rising'', p. 222</ref>

As of 3072, a [[BattleMech]] [[Trinary]] commanded by Quinn Kerensky and named "Quinn's Ravagers" raided prior to July [[Harvest]], [[Planting]], [[Dell]] and [[Svarstaad]] in less than two months.<ref name=Quinn_Kerensky>''BattleCorps: INN Newscast (Solaris Broadcasting Co. section), news item published [13/07/3072]: "Falcons Not Content With the Alliance"''</ref>

On Dell, she challenged the [[Dell Solahma (Clan Wolf)|Dell ''Solahma'' Cluster]] for supplies, parts, and replacement 'Mechs, but when the ''Solahma'' Cluster denied her challenge she engaged the Cluster and annihilated the garrison. After that, [[Clan Jade Falcon]] picked the supply depot clean.<ref name=Quinn_Kerensky/>

Finally when raiding Svarstaad they found a true opposition. Quinn Kerensky issued a [[Trial of Possession]] for her genetic legacy and was refused. Her two [[DropShip]]s made planetfall on two different sides of a mountain ridge. The Blue Keshik split to handle the two forces while the Sixth Wolf Cavalry Cluster defended the cities. [[Galaxy Commander]] [[Shistu Sradac]] found instead of brave Falcon warriors a DropShip with a few ''[[abtakha]]'' from the Dell ''Solahma'' Cluster‎‎. Meanwhile, [[Star Captain]] [[Harold Kerensky]] was attacked by the Falcons' full Trinary. They fought bravely but the two Binaries were no match for the ferocious Ravagers. Harold Kerensky asked for ''[[safcon]]'' but was denied as Quinn tore apart his ''[[Daishi]]'' single-handed and then vaporized the crippled 'Mech's cockpit with a [[PPC]] blast. The Falcons then returned to the [[Jade Falcon Occupation Zone]] with a [[Star]]'s worth of salvageable 'Mechs.<ref name=Quinn_Kerensky/>
