Immediately prior to the [[Clan Invasion]], the 102nd Division, then a IV-Theta mix referred to by the nickname of ''Vigilant Thought'' of regular quality, was assigned to the [[6th Army (ComStar)|Sixth Army]] and was headquartered on the [[Free Worlds League]] world of [[Andurien]].<ref name=20YU>''20 Year Update'', p. 70: "6th V-pi"</ref>

With the 6th Army's ejection from the Sarna March in the wake of [[Operation GUERRERO]], in the aftermath of Operation BULLDOG the 102nd was transferred to assist with relief and reconstruction efforts on the recaptured [[Draconis Combine]] world of [[Luzerne]]. Location of some of the worst fighting during BULLDOG, the division's engineers were heavily involved in cleaning up the myriad of battle sites and rebuilding civilian infrastructure on the world. Despite its humanitarian efforts, the native population were highly suspicious of the 102nd and its motives due to bitter memories of [[Operation SCORPION]] and [[Clan Smoke Jaguar]]'s crackdown in response to it.<ref name=FMC-31>''Field Manual: ComStar'', pp. 30–31: "6th Army V-kappa: Grim Defiance"</ref><ref name=FMU>''Field Manual: Updates'', pp. 87, 98: "6th Army V-Kappa (Grim Defiance)"</ref>

While not directly hostile, the 102nd found itself slighted by the natives at every turn. It would take eight years of hard work by the division to rebuild the world infrastructure to finally begin to overcome this tension and good relationships to blossom.<ref name=FMU/>
