===The Jihad & Stone===
She was sent by the Word of Blake to reeducation camp, RBMU 105. Details of her capture and incarceration have not been fully revealed, and it's been suspected [[Devlin Stone]] has ordered her not to speak of it. What is known is that she joined the prison resistance group led by Devlin Stone, ultimately succeeding in overpowering their captors and taking over the camp.

===Road to Liberate Terra===

{{Sectionstub}}
In early December [[3076]] the arrival of the ''[[Little Big Horn]]'' on [[Donegal]] prompted media speculation that Belle and various other senior military officers were meeting on Donegal to plan the invasion of the [[Word of Blake Protectorate]]. While the ''Little Big Horn'' had not been confirmed to be Belle's command vessel, adding credence to the rumors was the presence of both [[Field Marshal]] [[Katherine Sandoval-Ito]] of the [[AFFS]] and ''[[Tai-shu]]'' [[Isoroku Kurita]] of the [[DCMS]] on Donegal, where both had been in seclusion since mid-November, and the arrival of [[Duke]] [[Robert Kelswa-Steiner]] on Donegal the day after the ''Little Big Horn'' landed.<ref name="JHS:Tp16+">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', pp. 16–17: "Big Doings On ''Little Big Horn''"</ref>
 
 
 
Belle led a number of planetary campaigns personally during [[Operation SCOUR]], the campaign to liberate the worlds of the Word of Blake Protectorate, including the second assault on [[Chara]] in October [[3077]].<ref name="J:FRp58">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 58: "The Jihad in Review"</ref>

==Titles & Ranks==
As the [[Republic of the Sphere]] established itself as a nation, Devlin Stone and [[David Lear]] debated asking Lee to accept the post of [[Commanding General of the Republic Armed Forces]]. Lee refused to consider the high-level post, arguing vehemently that she should remain deployed along with the field army; while the indications are that this was accepted, Lear evidently pushed for her to move from a field position to a strategic position in the longer term, so as to avoid creating a vocal opponent to various reforms who would also enjoy the popular support of much of the armed forces. With Lee adamant about not serving as Commanding General, the second choice candidate fell to [[Victor Steiner-Davion]].<ref name="J:FRp102">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 103: "Leadership"</ref>
 
 
 
By [[3085]] she had developed the concept of ''[[Errant Force]]'' and selected five lances to act as this.<ref>''BattleTech Dossiers: Lamenkov's Liability'', p. 1</ref>
 
 
 
==Retirement==
 
Having fought with Stone for seventeen years since Kittery, Belle Lee eventually tired of warfare and retired to Fortymile where she had a son. She lived to see her grandson's fifth birthday in ca. [[3119]].<ref name=ID/>
