Third Fleet was our last best hope for victory in the early years of The War. It failed. Epsilon Reticuli became a lesson every naval officer studied before graduation, a battle no one wished to repeat. Serenity became a mixed lesson. In some circles it was an example of what all Alliance personnel were expected to do if required. For others it was a lesson that political battles were just as deadly. For me it was an opportunity that I did not ignore.
