Reinhardt and the 10th stayed on station on New Avalon following the end of the Civil War, feeling that they had failed [[Yvonne Steiner-Davion]] in allowing her to be deposed.<ref>''Field Manual: Updates'' p. 170</ref> He and his unit were therefore on the planet when the [[Word of Blake]] attacked at the start of the [[Jihad]]. Reinhardt was deep in the fighting, and by 3072 his reputation had grown so large that technician [[Robert Doucette]] expressed a desire to meet him, saying that "from all the stories around here, you'd swear he had single-handedly choked the Falcons and sent them running home to Kerensky." <ref name=isle_blessed_30720830>''BattleCorps: INN Newscast (Isle of the Blessed section), news item published [30/08/3072] "Tech Journal Doucette: 3 August 3072"''</ref>

Unfortunately, Reinhardt's fighting skills were not quite on that level, as he was killed in a Blakist ambush on December 18, 3072. Though he was killed by a ''[[Wyvern]]'' punch to the cockpit, rumors rapidly began circulating that he fought a massive last stand not unlike [[Aidan Pryde]], where he took down four enemy 'Mechs with nothing but his [[small laser]].<ref>''Isle of the Blessed'', Robert Doucette</ref>
