−	Among the objectives of Operation LIBERATION was securing the communities known as the [[Belter]] communities, which lay predominantly in the regions known as the Jovian L4 and L5 Lagrange points, largely as communities and installations built into various asteroids of the Trojan Asteroid clusters. While the Belters were an isolationist community at the time, there was a long tradition of individuals from Belter communities serving in the various commercial merchant fleets that bloomed under the [[Star League]] as well as in the [[Star League Defense Force]] navy. The communities also maintained and operated small shipyards, a notable strategic asset; this, combined with his abhorrence of the idea of allowing a group free rein or autonomy, led [[Stefan Amaris]] to attempt to control the Belters through the use of political overseers, military governors and threats of force via WarShips or the [[Caspar]] drones that formed a large part of the [[Terra]]n [[SDS]] network.<ref name="H:LOTv2p65"/>	+	Among the objectives of Operation LIBERATION was securing the communities known as the Belter communities, which lay predominantly in the regions known as the Jovian L4 and L5 Lagrange points, largely as communities and installations built into various asteroids of the Trojan Asteroid clusters.

	The SLS ''Tally Ho'' was one of the WarShips assigned to remove Amaris' forces from Belter space, where a number of facilities had already been struck by troops loyal to Amaris. The ''Tally Ho'' was operating alongside a sister ship, the [[Margaret Rose|SLS ''Margaret Rose'']], when the SLDF ships received a call for assistance from a [[Rim Worlds Republic]] WarShip, the corvette [[Achilles (Individual WarShip)|RWS ''Achilles'']]. The ''Achilles'' had been undergoing a refit at the [[Mercator-Campion Shipyards]] in the Andromache asteroid in the Trojan Asteroid clusters in Jupiter's L5 Lagrange point when the SLDF WarShips had deployed to Jovian space, and the crew of the ''Achilles'' had decided to break free of their moorings and make for Jupiter's gravity well, but the ''Achilles'' had succumbed to malfunctions and failures in her life support system and maneuvering drive and been left stranded in the L1 Lagrange point between Jupiter and [[Io (Jupiter)|Io]].

None of the SLDF vessels had enough space suits shielded against hard radiation to effect suitable repairs on the ''Achilles'', and personnel in conventional suits would swiftly succumb to the radiation; equally, while some personnel could be moved off the ''Achilles'' by shuttle, there was no way to move enough people off the ''Achilles'' before she too succumbed to the local radiation.<ref name="H:LOTv2p65"/> Captain [[Nadine Durham]] of the SLS ''Tally Ho'' came up with a viable plan to rescue the ''Achilles''; a pair of [[BattleMech]]s jetted across to the ''Achilles'', and in a dangerous ninety-minute operation, attached a tow line to the ''Achilles''. That tow line was used by the SLS ''Margaret Rose'' and the SLS ''Tally Ho'' to tow the disabled ''Achilles'' up to a higher orbit before securing and arresting her crew.<ref name="H:LOTv2p65"/> ==References== <references /> ==Bibliography== * ''[[Historical: Liberation of Terra Volume 2]]'' [[Category: Individual WarShips]]
