−	===Formation===
−	'''Beta Galaxy''' was formed around the [[Thirteenth Wolf Spiders]] and the [[Sixteenth Battle Cluster]]. As part of [[Operation BULLDOG]] half the Galaxy assaulted [[Clan Smoke Jaguar]] in the [[Draconis Combine]], while the other two Clusters of Beta hit various [[Clan Jade Falcon|Jade Falcon]] worlds to keep them off-balance. None of the Falcons were claimed as bondsmen.<ref name=FM:WCp159/> In [[3061]] most of Beta Galaxy was stationed on [[Arc-Royal]] but the Second Wolf Legion was based on [[Morges]].<ref>''Field Manual: Warden Clans'', p. 166</ref>
−	In [[3067]] Beta Galaxy remained a hard-hitting unit. Elements of Beta were assigned to several worlds in the [[Arc-Royal Defense Cordon]].<ref name=FM:Up80/>

−	During [[Operation SCOUR]] Beta Galaxy was assigned to Group IV of the [[Free Worlds League]] campaign. In [[3074]] they landed on [[Skye]] alongside [[Clan Wolf|Clan Wolf's]] [[Delta Galaxy (Clan Wolf)|Delta Galaxy]] and [[Stone's Lament]]. There they faced the Word's [[3rd Division (Word of Blake)|Third]] and [[18th Division (Word of Blake)|Eighteenth Divisions]].

−	On [[Chara]] for example, Group IV lost the [[Clan Wolf-in-Exile]] flagship, the ''[[McKenna (WarShip class)|McKenna]]''-class battleship [[McKenna (WarShip class)#Named Vessels|CWiE ''Werewolf'']], as well as the largest WarShip in service with the [[Lyran Alliance Armed Forces]], the ''[[Mjolnir (WarShip class)|Mjolnir]]''-class battlecruiser [[Fylgia|LAS ''Fylgia'']], and a ''[[Carrack]]''-class transport operated by [[Clan Nova Cat]] during the initial approach to Chara alone to an operational [[SDS]] system firing nuclear weapons.<ref name="JHS:Tp48+">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', pp. 48–49: "Chara Operational Report"</ref><ref>''Total Chaos'', pp. 166–167</ref>	+	On [[Chara]] for example, Group IV lost the [[Clan Wolf-in-Exile]] flagship, the ''[[McKenna (WarShip)|McKenna]]''-class battleship [[McKenna (WarShip)#Named Vessels|CWiE ''Werewolf'']], as well as the largest WarShip in service with the [[Lyran Alliance Armed Forces]], the ''[[Mjolnir]]''-class battlecruiser [[Mjolnir#Named Vessels|LAS ''Fylgia'']], and a ''[[Carrack]]''-class transport operated by [[Clan Nova Cat]] during the initial approach to Chara alone to an operational [[SDS]] system firing nuclear weapons.<ref name="JHS:Tp48+">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 48-49, "Chara Operational Report"</ref><ref>''Total Chaos'', pp. 166-167</ref>
−	The fighting on Chara didn't get easier, as Beta Galaxy faced the two Divisions of [[Protectorate Militia]] on the world, as well as the [[4th Free Worlds Legionnaires]], the [[Steel Guard]], and the [[13th Marik Militia]], these former [[FWLM]] troops had defected to the Word of Blake. Just as the intelligence used to plan the campaign had either missed or intentionally omitted the presence of the SDS network, it also lacked information on the three former [[Free Worlds League]] regiments being present on Chara. Though the Wolves put up a tremendous fight and inflicted heavy losses on the Blakists, they were unable to take Chara, and after sustaining heavy losses including their senior officer the entire group had to evacuate to [[Talitha]] under the temporary command of [[Alexia Rhyde]].<ref name="JHS:Tp48+">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', pp. 48–49: "Chara Operational Report"</ref> The 16th Wolf Guards and Second Wolf Strike Grenadiers were both lost in the fighting on Chara.<ref name=frc22>''Field Report: Clans'', p. 22</ref>	+	The fighting on Chara didn't get easier, as Beta Galaxy faced the two Divisions of [[Protectorate Militia]] on the world, as well as the [[4th Free Worlds Legionnaires]], the [[Steel Guard]], and the [[13th Marik Militia]], these former [[FWLM]] troops had defected to the Word of Blake.

	By the time they landed on [[Pollux]] for rest and refit, the Galaxy was barely able to muster a [[Cluster]] of troops.
