Her unit was stationed on [[Krenice]] when [[Clan Ghost Bear]] arrived during the [[Clan Invasion]]. The Fifth was able to deal severe damage to the [[Twelfth Bear Chevaliers (Clan Ghost Bear)|Twelfth Bear Chevaliers]] when they first landed and proceeded to launch a series of raids on their supply lines and run a series of hit and run assaults. The Ghost Bears were able to flush the Fifth out of their hiding places via air support and forced the Fifth to move across the continent away from their DropShips. Trying to make the best of a bad situation, Helen Cassidy dispatched smaller groups to slow the pursuing Bears by hitting them in the flanks, the most successful of which saw a company from the Fifth lead the Chevaliers on an extended wild goose chase through LightDraught Woods, getting the Chevaliers so completely lost in a couple of hours that the Chevaliers had to break off their pursuit and call for assistance from their aerospace forces to lead them out of the Woods.
