Alpha secured its main objective of the Shandrake Massif research facility by the end of day two. Fighting continued for a least a further week before orbital bombardment reduced the last Viper strong point to dust. <ref name="WORp150">''Wars of Reaving'', p. 150-151, "Focussed Agression"</ref> − − After some 3,000 former Smoke Jaguars escaped from Huntress under the leadership of former Star Colonel [[Paul Moon]] in August 3060, Myers led the Thirty-fifth in pursuit down the Exodus Road to Wayside V, the isolated location of a former Smoke Jaguar resupply depot.<ref>''Forever Faithful'', p. 251</ref> There, the Thirty-fifth was defeated IN THE [[Battle of the Straits]] by a rough, ad hoc cluster comprised of the [[trinary]] of former Jaguar troops which had accompanied Moon to the new colony and the 47th Garrison Cluster of the Smoke Jaguars Zeta Galaxy, a [[Binary]] of older warriors and their poorly maintained BattleMechs which had been abandoned and forgotten by their Clan seven years earlier. As Myers had not counted on losing the Trial and had planned to replenish his food provisions after harvesting the colony, the Thirty-fifth did not have enough food to make the year-long trip home. Moon therefore forced him and the surviving personnel of the Thirty-fifth, including the jumpship crews, to work as laborers growing foodstuffs and tending livestock so that they could return home to Clan space. Those who wanted to stay could, but those who returned would have to purge their ships' maps of the location of Wayside V and never reveal its location. The Thirty-fifth's survivors did their duty as prisoners of war and finally returned to Huntress in March 3064. But a few, feeling that their honor was hopelessly lost during "Myers' Folly," deserted the galaxy commander and joined Moon's colonists on Wayside V, becoming part of his new [[Fidelis]]. Despite Myers' disgrace, Khan [[Ariel Suvorov]] left him in command of the Thirty-fifth to give him the chance to redeem himself but required him to retest for his position as Alpha Galaxy commander.<ref>''Forever Faithful'', pp. 272-274</ref> − − The Thirty-fifth was still garrisoning Huntress in 3067.<ref name=FM:Up78>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 78, "Warden Clans Deployment Table"</ref> − − In mid December 3075 during the Wars of Reaving, Alpha Galaxy—including the Thirty-fifth Cuirassiers—dropped onto [[New Kent]] as part of the multi-Clan force tasked with the annihilation of Clan Steel Viper.
