Acting on intelligence gathered during Operation SABLE SUN, Khan McKenna's [[WarShip]]s, his family namesake ''[[McKenna (WarShip class)|McKenna]]''-class battleship ''James McKenna'' and the ''[[Cameron (WarShip class)|Cameron]]''-class ''Admiral Gerda Cameron'', moved to secure the zenith jump point upon entering the Circe system.  Opposing them were a ''[[Congress]]''-class frigate and an ancient ''[[Quixote]]''-class missile frigate which was docked at the recharge station, as it had been for the last five years of surveillance.  The ''Congress'' put up a delaying action, but the ''Quixote''-class frigate managed to escape the system.<ref name=H:OKp44/>

After securing the zenith jump point and recharge station, Khan McKenna turned his focus toward [[Outpost One]], itself made from a recharge station and several permanently attached DropShips.  Guarded by a ''McKenna''-class battleship and a ''[[Sovetskii Soyuz]]''-class battlecruiser, Khan McKenna sent the ''[[Black Lion]]''-class ''Thunderbolt'' and the ''[[Avatar (WarShip class)|Avatar]]''-class ''Korat'' to engage the enemy.  In a battle that favored the [[Clan]] forces due to superior training, both enemy ships were destroyed after the Clan vessels jumped within range to deliver their attacks.  Before the space station could be secured, a ''[[Potemkin]]''-class transport cruiser and three smaller [[JumpShip]]s separated and fled the star system to be hunted down over the following months during what would come to be known as the [[Battle of the Pentagon Run]].  The naval cache was secured by the combined efforts of ''Cameron'', ''[[Sovetskii Soyuz]]'', ''[[Essex]]'', and ''[[Whirlwind]]''-class vessels converging on the site of the cache, which contained only one third of the vessels once stored there.  The rebels were unprepared, their two sentry vessels—both of them ''[[Vincent]]''-class WarShips—attempted to flee rather than fight and were brought to heel before they could make their escape.<ref name=H:OKp44/><ref>''Historical: Operation Klondike'', pp. 44–45: "Cleaning the Cache"</ref>
