==History==
During the Trials in [[3048]] to prepare for [[Operation REVIVAL]], the '''Thirty-eighth Assault Cluster''', temporarily led by [[saKhan]] [[Pazi Tchernovkov]],<ref name=OTPRT-19/> defeated [[Clan Fire Mandrill]] but later lost to [[Clan Smoke Jaguar]] and [[Clan Steel Viper]].<ref>''Operational Turning Points: REVIVAL Trials'', p. 15</ref>

During Khan Koga's reforms of the Coyote ''[[touman]]'', positions in the Thirty-eighth Assault Cluster were opened up to warriors who had recently graduated from their ''[[sibko]]s''. This new blood allowed the Thirty-eighth to rebuild quickly.<ref name=FM:WCp49/> Between 3060 and 3067 the Thirty-eighth was stationed on [[Babylon]].<ref>''Field Manual: Warden Clans'', p. 161</ref><ref name=FM:Up76>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 76: "Clan Coyote Deployment Table"</ref>
