War of 3039
The 5th Ghost, along with the 6th Ghost, attacked the world of Biham after it was invaded by the 8th Crucis Lancers and Laurel's Legion. They launched a series of raids in company sized units across the world, and the 8th Lancers were unable to counter them. Finally the 5th and 6th Ghost regiments surrounded the 8th Lancers at Biham's capital city and drove them offworld.[1]
Clan Invasion
Posted to Nowhere in 3059, the 5th Ghost was able to create an intelligence network that reached deep into Clan Smoke Jaguar territory. The 5th focused their training on destroying any attacking Clan units instead of defending the world.[2]

Jihad
During the Jihad the Fifth Ghost was stationed on Gram near the Word of Blake Protectorate. The Blakists attacked Garm three times over the next years, inflicting casualties each time. The most damaging attack was the final one, where the Word used Pocket WarShips to conduct orbital bombardments. This attack cost the Fifth half a battalion and destroyed Garm's spaceport.[4]
After the Jihad the Ghost Regiments were officially disbanded.[citation needed]
Officers
Should Tai-sa Wu Ts'ao ever lose control, then Tai-sa Richard Schaffer stand ready to take the lead of the entire battle group.[citation needed]
In 3059 during 3067 the 5th Ghost was commanded by Tai-sa Paul Koin.[2][5]
Tactics
The unit trains hard to improve their defensive skills, because a new invasion or a simply border raid is every time possible.[2]
