The '''Forty-fifth Brigade''' was a part of the [[Star League Defense Force]] Regular Army.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
Formed as a part of the [[15th BattleMech Division|Fifteenth Division]] during the creation of the SLDF, the Forty-fifth Brigade was a part of [[V Corps (Star League)|V Corps]] during [[Operation UNION HOLD]], the five-year campaign to conquer the [[Outworlds Alliance]]. The Forty-fifth Brigade served as a part of the [[SLDF Task Force Outworlds|Outworlds Alliance Task Force]] from the start of the operation in [[2581]] until peace was declared with the [[Treaty of Cerberus]] in [[2585]].<ref name="H:RWp141">''Historical: Reunification War'', p. 141: "Outworlds Alliance Front"</ref><br />
<br />
The Forty-fifth was stationed on [[Delacruz]] when the invasion of the Alliance began and was deployed first to [[Weisau]] in 2581, [[Medron]] in [[2582]], and then [[Ki Zoban]] in [[2583]].<ref name="H:RWp141"/> The Forty-fifth saw active combat twice in 2583 after being mustered on Ki Zoban along with the majority of V Corps;<ref name="H:RWp124">''Historical: Reunification War'', p. 124: "Baby Killers Unleashed"</ref> the Forty-fifth was a part of the force that attacked [[Lushann]] in 2583,<ref name="H:RWp124+">''Historical: Reunification War'', p. 124: "Battle For Lushann"</ref> before being deployed as part of an ad hoc [[division]] of three brigades on a raid on [[Tellman IV]] by the commander of the Outworlds Alliance Task Force, [[General]] [[Amos Forlough]]. As a result, the Forty-fifth was heavily involved in the disastrous battle on Tellman IV that became known as the [[Day of Vengeance]], which resulted in V Corps losing a third of its combat strength in an ambush at the hands of the [[Pitcairn Legion]] and the [[Outworlds Alliance Militia]].<ref name="H:RWp141"/><ref name="H:RWp124++">''Historical: Reunification War'', p. 124: "Day Of Vengeance"</ref><br />
<br />
The Forty-fifth spent the remainder of the war locked in the constant grinding battle for Lushann.<ref name="H:RWp141"/> After the war, the Forty-fifth Brigade and the bulk of V Corps formed the major part of the [[Outworlds Alliance Army of Occupation]], establishing bases alongside the new Star League administration offices on each of the Outworlds Alliance worlds.<ref name="H:RWp160">''Historical: Reunification War'', pp. 157–160: "The Terms of Outworlds Freedom"</ref><br />
