| On '''2654.137''', the [[Confederation]] had the [[kilrathi]] controlled planet, [[Brimstone II]] in the [[Brimstone]] system, blockaded. Due to the blockade, the planet had became desparate for munitions and supplies. To aid them, the [[Empire of Kilrah]] dispatched dozens of [[Dorkir]] transports to the system, hoping a few would manage to slip through the blockade. The [[TCS Tiger's Claw]] dispatched several wings of fighters to intercept these transports. One such wing was [[Rho Wing]], which consisted of [[Christopher Blair]] and [[Todd Marshall]]. Rho Wing encountered two [[Jalthi]] and four [[Krant]] fighters, one of which was flown by kilrathi ace [[Khajja nar Ja'targk]], and a lone Dorkir transport. [[Tactical]] later reported that the transport was carrying [[Ground-to-Space Missile|Ground-to-Space Missiles]].

| Following this, as [[Terrans|terran]] fighters gained superiority in space above Brimstone II, a band of terran saboteurs attacked a major kilrathi millitary installation on the planet. With its destruction, the kilrathi's strategic hold on the Brimstone System was broken.

| Later in the [[Chengdu]] System, the ''Tiger's Claw'' received a distress call from [[Yellow Jacket Squadron]] pilot [["Valkyrie"]]. She had got a fix on a [[Ralari]]-class Destroyer but had come under attack from four Krant fights enroute back to the ''Claw''. The ''Claw'' dispatched [[Epsilon Wing]], which consisted of Blair and [[Jeannette Devereaux]], to escort her back to the ''Claw''. While on this mission, Epsilon Wing also encountered the Ralari-class Destroyer.

| Next, the ''Tiger's Claw'' dispatched [[Iota Wing]], consisting of Blair and Devereaux, to escort an [[Exeter]]-class Destroyer, which was on its way to the [[Ymir]] System, to its [[jump-Point]]. During the mission, Iota Wing encountered six [[Dralthi]] and four [[Salthi]] fighters and was forced to navigate an [[Asteroids|asteroid]] field.

| Finally, six [[Gratha]] launched an attack on the ''Tiger's Claw''. The kilrathi fighters managed to destroy one of the two defending [[Hornet]] fighters before the ''Claw'' could sound [[Code Red]] and launch reinforcements. With only the [[Killer Bees Squadron]] available, the ''Claw'' launched Blair and Devereaux as [[Omicron Wing]]. [[Ian St. John]] and [["Redbird"]] were launched shortly after. [[Todd Marshall]] and [["Turtle"]] were next to launch, but the threat was eliminated before they had the chance to launch.
