==History==
First commanded by one of [[Clan Ghost Bear]]'s founding [[Khan]]s, [[Hans Ole Jorgensson]], '''Alpha Galaxy''' has been the premier fighting unit of the [[Clan Ghost Bear Touman|Ghost Bear ''touman'']] and traditionally fights at the forefront of all its major operations.<ref name=FMWC88>''Field Manual: Warden Clans'', p. 88: "Alpha Galaxy Composition"</ref> Traditionally Alpha Galaxy was commanded by a Ghost Bear Khan. For example in [[2921]] it was led by Khan Kilbourne Jorgensson.<ref name=tptp10>''Turning Points: Tokasha'', p. 10</ref>

===Operation REVIVAL===
====Thule====
[[File:CGB vs FRR on Thule ER3052.jpg|thumb|left|CGB Alpha Galaxy destroys the First Hussars on Thule]]
With the bidding fierce to see who would be the first Bear unit to strike at an [[Inner Sphere]] world, [[Khan]] [[Karl Bourjon]] and [[saKhan]] [[Theresa DelVillar]] declared that [[Alpha Galaxy (Clan Ghost Bear)|Alpha]], [[Beta Galaxy (Clan Ghost Bear)|Beta]] and [[Delta Galaxy (Clan Ghost Bear)|Delta Galaxies]] would all contribute forces to a composite "Cluster" to go up against the [[1st Hussars (Free Rasalhague Republic)|First Hussars]], breaking the bidding deadlock.<ref name="er52-52">''Era Report: 3052'', p. 52: "Factions - Clan Ghost Bear - Third Bear Striker"</ref><ref name=IC-19>''Invading Clans'', pp. 19–20: "Clan Ghost Bear - Wave One: Looking for a Fight"</ref>

Despite being caught off guard by the Clans ''[[batchall]]'', with ''[[Överste]]'' Swigard intimately familiar with Thule she selected a time and place for battle that clearly favored her own troops. When the Ghost Bear [[OmniMech]]s overheated after failing to account for the incredible heat of Thule's noonday sun in the treacherous terrain of the Fresdon Desert, the Hussars' artillery support was able to destroy over a [[Trinary]] of equipment.<ref name="er52-52"/><ref name=IC-19/>

This setback prompted [[Star Colonel]] [[François Cote]] of the [[3rd Bear Striker (Clan Ghost Bear)|Third Bear Striker]] to break his bid to order the rest of Cluster into battle. Having already anticipated just such a strategy, the Hussars sent their [[aerospace fighter]]s to strafe the Third on its approach from the east, inflicting yet more losses. With Star Colonel [[Stephan Huntsig]] breaking his bid to call in the fighters of his [[50th Striker (Clan Ghost Bear)|Fiftieth Striker Cluster]], the Bears were able to surround the Hussars. As the fighting petered out, Swigard sent out recon units to try and determine the reason for the lull, realizing the Bears were waiting for nightfall and the end of the oppressive heat.<ref name="er52-52"/><ref name=IC-19/>

Rather than waiting for the Bears to gain the advantage, the Hussars struck the Bear northern flank while the sun was still high in the sky, using artillery to cover their attempted breakout through the encircling Bear forces. When the Ghost Bears attempted to block the breakout with their lighter and faster units to give time for their heavier elements to arrive, the Hussars succeeded in escaping even after the Ghost Bears gained air superiority, thanks to continued artillery barrages.<ref name="er52-52"/><ref name=IC-19/>

This ongoing difficulty prompted Star Colonel [[Paul Vishio]] to finally break his bid as well, calling down additional fighter support to silence the Hussars' artillery. The now desperate Hussars bolted for the large river that divides the Fresdon Plain in hopes of reaching their naval support assets, losing over a [[company]] of troops as they hurriedly boarded massive cargo ships to head upriver and out of reach of the Ghost Bear 'Mech forces.<ref name="er52-52"/><ref name=IC-19/>

With Thule's population accepting Ghost Bear rule, and deciding that sinking the Hussars' ships outside of combat would be dishonorable, the Ghost Bears left the Third Bear Striker's 312th Assault [[Trinary]] behind as a garrison unit, content they would be able to mop up the survivors while the rest of the Bears moved on to other targets. With the Bears wholly unprepared for guerrilla resistance from the Rasalhague population, ''Överste'' Swigard led the survivors of the First Hussars in eliminating the skeleton garrison left behind and retaking their homeworld, planning and preparing for the day the Ghost Bears would surely come back.<ref name=ER3052-5>''Era Report: 3052'', pp. 5–7: "Second Chance"</ref>

SaKhan Theresa DelVillar and her Golden Bears landed on May 14th, finding the Hussars' remaining [[battalion]]'s worth of troops on the frigid plains of the Southlands. Like the first attack, ''Överste'' Swigard planned her defense in a region her unit was intimately familiar with operating in and which she hoped would hinder the Clan troops, unaware the Bears favored the cold even more than her own troops. The Golden Bears easily swept through the prepared positions and traps the Hussars had set, and by the 17th the First Hussars had lost two [[company|companies]] of 'Mechs and were forced to their final "last stand" location, the so-called "Icebox".<ref name=ER3052-5/><ref name=IC-20>''Invading Clans'', pp. 20–21: "Wave Two: Disaster Strikes"</ref>

A massive abandoned coal mine and processing plant, the enclosed space of the Icebox removed the Ghost Bears' range advantage and gave the Hussars ample opportunity for physical combat, but saKhan DelVillar welcomed the brutal fighting to come and ordered her troops in, certain her own [[Elemental]] forces would easily tilt the battle in their favor. DelVillar would be proven right when even in the face of mined approaches and heavy artillery support the unceasing advance of the Ghost Bears eventually shattered the last company of Hussar 'Mechs and resulted in the capture of ''Överste'' Swigard.<ref name=ER3052-5/><ref name=IC-20/>

The infantry unit attached to the Hussars was also heavily damaged with only a few platoons escaping capture. Rather than immediately launch a guerrilla campaign, they went to ground and waited for the invasion force to leave. They then raided the garrison troops left behind and captured Elemental armor. After practicing with the Elemental armor, these infantry soldiers launched an attack on the garrison unit one year after the Hussars ceased to exist. Then they left the world and safely relocated to the [[Draconis Combine]].<ref>''ClanTroops'', p. 40</ref>

====Alshain====
During [[Operation REVIVAL]], Alpha Galaxy played a critical role in the conquest of many [[Inner Sphere]] worlds, none more so than the capture of [[Alshain]]. Under the personal command of [[saKhan]] [[Aletha Kabrinski]], the Golden Bears managed to successfully combat the [[DCMS]]' use of mobile harassment and fortified positions to drive off the defending Kurita units. Alshain would go on to serve as the Ghost Bears' headquarters during the rest of the [[Invasion corridor - Clan Ghost Bear#3.6. Wave 5 (November-December 3051)|fifth invasion wave]] and eventually became the capital of the [[Ghost Bear Dominion]].<ref name=FMWC88/>

====Tukayyid====
Alpha Galaxy was assigned to take the objective city of Spanac. They landed unopposed, then were engaged in hit-and-run attacks by the [[308th Division (ComStar)|308th Division]], which did not seriously impede Alpha's progress. Alpha made it into the suburbs of Spanac, where they faced the [[103rd Division (ComStar)|103rd Division]] and the newly-arrived [[91st Division (ComStar)|91st Division]]. The 91st Division, not having time to dig in, were overrun when [[Beta Galaxy (Clan Ghost Bear)|Beta]] and [[Delta Galaxy (Clan Ghost Bear)|Delta]] Galaxies arrived. The three Ghost Bear Galaxies were able to force the 103rd Division to retreat from Spanac.<ref name=T-48>''Tukayyid'', pp. 48–56: "Campaign: Clan Ghost Bear"</ref><ref name=IC-29>''Invading Clans'', p. 29: "Tukayyid: World of Fate"</ref>

With Beta and Delta Galaxies directed to hold Spanac, Alpha was ordered to take Luk, where they mauled the [[4th Army (ComStar)|Fourth Army]], which came close to breaking, until the 103rd Division, reinforced by elements of the [[308th Division (ComStar)|308th Division]], launched an attack on Alpha Galaxy's main supply depot, forcing Alpha to turn back to defend it. Alpha subsequently took casualties heavy enough to make it impossible to take Luk and retreated to Spanac, where the Ghost Bear campaign ended.<ref name=T-48/><ref name=IC-29/>

=== First Draconis Combine/Ghost Bear War ===
The [[1st Combine-Dominion War|First Draconis Combine / Ghost Bear War]] erupted following an attack on [[Alshain]] by rogue elements of the [[Alshain Avengers]] [[brigade]] of the [[Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery]] in [[3062]],<ref name="FM:Up60">''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 60: "Overview"</ref> and as expected, Alpha Galaxy played a prominent part in the Ghost Bear's retaliation against the [[Draconis Combine Mustered Soldiery]].<ref name="FM:Up60A">''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 60: "Alpha Galaxy (The Golden Bears)"</ref> The [[1st Bear Guards (Clan Ghost Bear)|First Bear Guards]] struck at [[Idlewind]] while the [[3rd Bear Guards (Clan Ghost Bear)|Third Bear Guards]] attacked [[Garstedt]]. [[Star Colonel]] [[Ragnar Magnusson|Ragnar]] and the [[1st Rasalhague Bears (Clan Ghost Bear)|First Rasalhague Bears]] acted in what the Ghost Bears considered to be a noble fashion when they repulsed a raid by the [[Free Rasalhague Republic]], and as a reward, Ragnar and his [[Cluster]] were given a prominent role when the Ghost Bears responded to the [[Clan_Hell%27s_Horses#The_Invasion|opportunistic invasion]] of the Ghost Bear Occupation Zone by [[Clan Hell's Horses]]<ref name="FM:Up60A"/> in [[3063]].<ref name="FM:Up13">''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 13: "Dragons, Dark and Dangerous"</ref>

The Hell's Horses were acting at the urging of [[Clan Wolf|Wolf]] [[Khan]] [[Vladimir Ward]],<ref name="FM:Up60"/> and the Ghost Bears responded with their own counterattack; a number of worlds were targeted in particular, one of which was the world of [[Rasalhague]], a world of particular significant to the native population of the former Free Rasalhague Republic. Alpha Galaxy deployed the First Rasalhague Bears and the [[50th Striker (Clan Ghost Bear)|Fiftieth Striker Cluster]] to capture Rasalhague, an act that was well-received by the Rasalhagian natives within the Ghost Bear Occupation Zone.<ref name="FM:Up60A"/>

===Jihad===
Alpha Galaxy was involved in the heaviest fighting against the Word of Blake. During their near-continual fighting, Alpha received reinforcements and new troops from other Galaxies in the ''touman''. Without these near constant replacements, the Galaxy would have been destroyed. This fate actually befell the Fiftieth Striker Cluster. The unit was so heavily damaged that it was disbanded and the survivors used to shore up other Alpha Galaxy Clusters.<ref>''Field Report: Clans'', p. 9</ref> After the Jihad ended, Alpha Galaxy was assigned to garrison [[Alshain]].<ref name=frc11/>
====Luthien====
The lead Galaxy in the December [[3074]] Ghost Bear attack against the [[Word of Blake|Blakist]] presence on [[Luthien]], Alpha engaged in absolutely no communications with their targets. Bystanders, Kuritan loyalist or rebel, were swept aside if they were caught between the two opposing forces. The Blakists were executed, whether they surrendered or not, and no salvage was gathered.<ref name=JTPL_7_AG/>

====Dyev====
After landing on [[Dyev]] during a wave of attacks against worlds in the Word of Blake Protectorate in July [[3076]],<ref name="JHS:Tp22">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 22: "Timeline of the Jihad"</ref><ref name="J:FRp56">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 56: "The Jihad In Review"</ref> Alpha Galaxy found itself facing a Blakist counteroffensive in December when a task force breached the blockade of Ghost Bear and [[Clan Snow Raven|Snow Raven]] ships in orbit and landed six Divisions of troops on the surface of Dyev. The Blakists landed around Trogport and the planetary capital, Novaya Mensk, before deploying outwards. Alpha Galaxy found itself fighting alongside [[Omega Galaxy (Clan Ghost Bear)|Omega Galaxy]] against the [[28th Division (Word of Blake)|28th Militia Division]], the [[3rd Byrant Protectorate Militia Division|3rd Bryant]], and [[1st Lipton Protectorate Militia Division|1st Lipton Protectorate Militia Divisions]]; the Blakists used the Tupik Chasm and various mining tunnel complexes that connected to the chasm as fortifications to try and resist the Ghost Bear attack.<ref name="JHS:Tp18">''Jihad Hot Spots: Terra'', p. 18: "A Time Of Cleansing"</ref> History records that the 32nd Militia Division was subsequently destroyed on Dyev before the end of 3076.<ref name="J:FRp126">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 126: "Word Of Blake Militia"</ref>

====Dieron====
Bruised from their trip through the [[Word of Blake Protectorate]], Alpha Galaxy destroyed every [[Word of Blake]] unit they faced on [[Dieron]] in [[3077]], refusing to take prisoners. Their ferocity led them to triumph over the Blakist forces, but at a cost of about 60% of their warriors.<ref>''Jihad Turning Points: Dieron'', p. 8: Alpha Galaxy</ref>

=== The Dark Age ===
Alpha Galaxy was rapidly rebuilt after the Jihad, in part through the disbandment of [[Delta Galaxy (Clan Ghost Bear)|Delta Galaxy]] and the incorporation of two complete Clusters from Delta into Alpha - the [[8th Bear Cuirassiers (Clan Ghost Bear)|Eighth Bear Cuirassiers]] and [[73rd Battle (Clan Ghost Bear)|Seventy-third Battle]]<ref name="FM:3085p127"/> - but also through Alpha's posting on and around Alshain, where the Galaxy had access to the very best new equipment available.<ref name="FM:3085p120">''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 120: "Alpha Galaxy"</ref> By [[3085]], every Cluster within Alpha was operating at fifty-five percent of full strength or more.<ref name="FM:3085p127">''Field Manual: 3085'', p. 127: "Alpha Galaxy (The Golden Bears)"</ref>

Foreign intelligence agencies considered it notable that after the Jihad, the aging ''[[Sho-sa]]'' [[Shintaro Yamada]] - a former [[DCMS]] warrior captured on [[Richmond]] in [[3063]] - had been inducted into Alpha Galaxy. Serving as [[Star Captain]], Shintaro, despite his reportedly being a pacifist, it was considered likely that Shintaro had been moved into Alpha Galaxy not for his combat skills, but for his insight into the Draconis Combine, a move echoing the role Prince [[Haakon Magnusson]] had occupied with respect to the Rasalhague Republic in earlier years.<ref name="FM:3085p120"/>

Alpha Galaxy continued to serve as the lead Galaxy for the Rasalhague Dominion and as such spent a considerable amount of time protecting Alshain, the cultural heart of Clan Ghost Bear. Given that Khan [[Dalia Bekker]] regarded the [[Republic of the Sphere]] with reverence, it was a foregone conclusion that Alpha Galaxy would be sent to secure the worlds of [[Alrakis]] and [[Konstance]], as the Inner Sphere began to erupt into widespread warfare again. Having deployed in [[3135]], Alpha Galaxy only remained in place until Omega Galaxy secured [[Vega]].<ref name="FM:3145p162">''Field Manual: 3145'', p. 162: "Alpha Galaxy"</ref>

Although Alpha Galaxy wasn't around for subsequent events leading up to the formation of the [[Vega Protectorate]], many in Alpha came to feel that steps should have been taken to prevent Omega Galaxy from "going native" at the time, and given Khan Bekkar's conservative views, there was a building sense of expectation that Alpha would be called on to remove Omega's taint.<ref name="FM:3145p162"/>

=== Dominion Civil War ===
The dawn of the [[IlClan Era]] saw Alpha mutining after his commander. After the beginning of the [[Dominion Civil War]], Galaxy Commander [[Lars Magnusson]] was captured and forced to declare martial law on [[Alshain]]. After he was rescued by the Ghost Watch, along with his loyalist trinary of ''Kabrinsky's Keshik'', escaping. Eventually, Star Colonel [[Albert Hall]] became Alpha's commander, leading them to [[Vega]] to finally remove the ''taint'' of the Freeminders, but was unable to crush them. The arrival of Lars and SaKhan saw both SaKhan and Hall killed.<ref>''Dominions Divided'', p. 59-78</ref>

After resuming command of Alpha, Lars send them again at Alshain Province.<ref>''Dominions Divided'', p. 79</ref>
