Initially entering commission in May of 2017, ''Justicar'' began service assigned to [[Victoria Station]] in [[Tenth Fleet]], out of [[wikipedia:Nanaimo, BC|Nanaimo, BC, Canada]] under the command of then-[[CAPTJG|Junior Grade Captain]] [[Sir]] Mark Gledhill, [[KDE]]<ref name="BSD170503">[[BuShips Directive 1705-03]]</ref>; this was an upgrade for the crew of {{hms|Avalon|CL-395}}, which was turned over to the [[Royal Manticoran Reserve Fleet|Active Reserve]] for reassignment. A year later, almost to the day, the crew of HMS ''Justicar'' was once again upgraded, this time to {{hms|Centaur|CLAC-02}}, sending ''Justicar'' herself to the Active Reserve to await reassignment.<ref name="BSD180501">[[BuShips Directive 1805-01]]</ref> | Initially entering commission in May of 2017, ''Justicar'' began service assigned to [[Victoria Station]] in [[Tenth Fleet]], out of [[wikipedia:Nanaimo, BC|Nanaimo, BC, Canada]] under the command of then-[[CAPTJG|Junior Grade Captain]] [[Sir]] Mark Gledhill, [[KDE]]<ref name="BSD170503">[[Orders:BuShips Directive 1705-03]]</ref>; this was an upgrade for the crew of {{hms|Avalon|CL-395}}, which was turned over to the [[Royal Manticoran Reserve Fleet|Active Reserve]] for reassignment.

In November of 2020, this came to pass within [[Third Fleet]], out of Winston Salem, North Carolina under the command of [[Captain of the List]], once again returning ''Avalon'' to the Active Reserve.<ref name="BSD201105">[[BuShips Directive 2011-05]]</ref> And much like her preceding crew, May seems to be a good month, as in May of 2021, the crew of this iteration of ''Justicar'' moved up to the battlecruiser {{hms|Reliant|BC-401}}. Once again, HMS ''Justicar'' was transferred to the Active Fleet Reserves, where she has remained since.<ref name="BSD210501">[[BuShips Directive 2105-01]]</ref> | In November of 2020, this came to pass within [[Third Fleet]], out of Winston Salem, North Carolina under the command of [[Captain of the List]], once again returning ''Avalon'' to the Active Reserve.<ref name="BSD201105">[[Orders:BuShips Directive 2011-05]]</ref> And much like her preceding crew, May seems to be a good month, as in May of 2021, the crew of this iteration of ''Justicar'' moved up to the battlecruiser {{hms|Reliant|BC-401}}.
