The Forty-second spent the remainder of the war locked in the grinding battle for Lushann;[1] after the war, the Forty-second 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.[4]
