abstract
| - Under the command of Admiral Lester Tourville, the fleet was detached to Silesia to attack and destroy the Manticoran naval forces and installations in the Marsh System, as part of Operation Thunderbolt. For this operation, Second Fleet's flagship was the superdreadnought RHNS Majestic. Tourville's attack ended in defeat, as the Manticoran Task Force 34 commanded by Admiral Honor Harrington had (unknowingly to Haven) been reinforced by the Protector's Own Squadron of the Grayson Space Navy. Thus trapped between both the Manticoran and Grayson fleets, Second Fleet was ultimately defeated in the Second Battle of Sidemore, and Admiral Tourville's badly-damaged ships returned to Haven in a two month-long travel. (HH10, HH11) After this failure, Tourville moved his flag to the superdreadnought RHNS Guerriere and remained in command of Second Fleet. While Admiral Giscard's First Fleet was redeployed within Havenite space in reaction to Admiral Harrington's attacks on Republican systems, Second Fleet continued to operate offensively against the Manticoran Alliance. (HH11)
