The Fifth was stationed on [[Spica]] in [[3017]] when the unit was attacked by [[Capellan Confederation]] forces secretly led by [[Candace Liao]]. The invading forces cut the command battalion off from the rest of the regiment in the city of Valencia. Major William Dobson and Lieutenant [[Justin Allard]] broke the siege with a risky plan and ultimately caused the invasion force to withdraw from the planet.<ref>''Warrior: Riposte'', p. 117</ref>

The Guards saw action during the [[War of 3039]], where they were teamed up with the newly formed [[Third FedCom RCT]] to take the world of [[Sadalbari]]. Overall command of the Task Force was given to Marshal [[Vernon Cunningham]]. The regiment was positioned on the world of [[David]] for initial operations into the [[Draconis Combine]].

Overall command of the Task Force was given to Marshal [[Vernon Cunningham]]. The regiment was positioned on the world of [[David]] for initial operations into the [[Draconis Combine]].
  
During the operations in April of [[3039]], Cunningham launched a daring plan where the Task Force's aerospace fighters would strike the planet's communication centers to disrupt the world's defenders in coordinating their efforts stop his Task Force as they struck two military reservations where Kurita were garrisoned.  In a night raid, the Task Force's jump troops backed up by a battalion of recon BattleMechs would take the garrisons by surprise preventing them from deploying into action.  The Davions were successful in their surprise attack at the Xantal Reservation. Just outside the planet's capital of Solus City, the bulk of the Task Force's troops would in the plains next to the Origian Reservation. Unlike the highly successful capture of the Xantal garrison, the Origian Garrison of Kuritans would be given time to form up due Task Force's commander of the Originan insistence to wait till his troops were formed up. Elements of the [[2nd Shin Legion|Second Shin Legion]] would lead several combined arms forces in a counterattack against the Task Force's units. Marshal Cunningham's efforts to attack were repulsed due to running headlong into the Kurita forces. Due to the incompetence of Major General Thomas Davion, the momentum of destroying the Kuritans was lost, when Davion ordered his forces to hold the city versus pursuing the DCMS units.

Realizing the slowness of the Davion forces, the Shin Legion's commanding officer ''Tai-sa'' Coale sent his forces out and overran the HQ of the Task Force, capturing Major General Davion and Marshal Cunningham. Elements of the Third FedCom's First 'Mech battalion commanded by Major Jack Roberts arrived too late to prevent the capture of the Task force's leading generals.

The command of the Task Force fell to Major General Anya Tam and Major Roberts who devised a plan try turn the tables on ''Tai-sa'' Coale's forces. Taking advantage of the Task Force's superior numbers, Major Roberts utilized the Guards and FedCom 'Mech forces heavier 'Mech and vehicles elements against the Kuritans. While he pushed fastest units to strike from the flanks of the enemy and hit vital DCMS staging grounds and would ultimately encircle Kurita's headquarters causing DCMS troops to panic.

By July, the Fifth was called up to reinforce Third FedCom as they were trying fight off the [[Seventh Ghost|Seventh]] and [[Eighth Ghost]] assault. In course of the fighting, the FedCom RCT was force to withdraw from their positions in Origian Reservation. Colonel Roberts Demi-Brigade would be called help relieve assault on Third FedCom. However the combined Ghost Regiments led by ''[[Tai-sa]]'' Hishu Stonara would destroy Robert's brigade and later disintegrate the Third FedCom.  Fifth Guards would enter the field to buy time for Colonel Roberts and [[Leftenant General]] Dane Cooper to regroup the Third FedCom as ''Tai-sa'' Coale's force emerged from their mountain strongholds and aided in hunting down the elements of the Third. However, efforts to regroup were too late, much of the RCT strength was lost in course of the fighting the Ghosts and 2nd Shin Legion.  Much of it to do, with Ghost Regiments using [[lostech]] equipped battlemechs, which would go on to exhaust Fifth Guards. Marshall Cunningham decided to fall back to the Xantal Military Reservation and fortify their positions and await for aid arrive.  By October, the Fifth and rest of the Task forces would retreat from the planet and return to the world of David.<ref>''Historical: War of 3039'', p. 96, 136: Wave Two and Counterattack - Sadalbari - First Wave actions of the Fifth Davion Guards and the aftermath.</ref>

===Clan Invasion===
 
===Clan Invasion===
The Fifth Davion Guards were on [[Bessarabia]] when the [[Clan Invasion]] began. They were forced off that world by [[Clan Wolf]] but learned how to counter the massive firepower of the Clan forces. They employed this information against [[Clan Jade Falcon]] on [[La Grave]] in [[3051]], but the Falcons had also learned. A star of [[Elemental]]s assigned to headhunter duty found the Fifth's commanders and killed them. The Falcons then used concentrated fire on several command and support units.<ref>''Jade Falcon Sourcebook'', p. 43</ref> This information came at a serious price, however, as the Fifth lost most of their conventional infantry and vehicle support.<ref>''Field Manual: Federated Suns'', p. 83</ref> They were reassigned to [[Mkuranga]] to rebuild.<ref name=MWobraidp23/>

In May [[3052]], the Fifth Davion Guards assaulted [[Goat Path]], seeking to disrupt Jade Falcon supply lines.  Expecting only the [[6th Provisional Garrison (Clan Jade Falcon)]], they found that a front-line Cluster was also on-planet for refit and resupply. The Guards lost five DropShips before they could deploy 'Mechs.  Second Battalion (Chamber's) was scattered, losing the Commanding Officer and Executive Officer almost immediately.  The Battalion held until the rest of the surviving Guards evacuated and then scattered.  Over the next few weeks, the survivors fell one by one until only [[Leftenant]] [[Nicole Devereaux]], commander of Strike Lance, Bravo Company was left in a battered ''[[Lancelot]]''.  She challenged her pursuer to a Trial of Possession: if she lost, she would willingly serve as a [[Bondswoman|bondswoman]], but if she won the Jade Falcons had to give her access to the planetary [[HPG]] to request evacuation from the planet and repair and upgrade her 'Mech with Clan equipment.  Overruling [[Star Commander]] [[Russell (Clan Jade Falcon)]] who had been pursuing her, [[Star Colonel]] [[Phyllis Irons]] honored her ''[[batchall]]'' and promised to honor the conditions.  Leftenant Devereaux defeated the Star Commander, though she was seriously injured.  While recovering in a hospital on [[Pasig]], [[Hauptmann-General]] [[William Galloway]] promoted her to [[Hauptmann]] and gave her command of Bravo Company, which she would be rebuilding.<ref name=Wicked>''No Rest for the Wicked''</ref>
