Located on[2] the Mid Rim planet[3] Ord Mantell, barrack block 5 Epsilon was a barracks complex within Fleet Support, an installation built[2] by 22 BBY[1] and utilized by the Galactic Republic's Grand Army[2] in 22 BBY.[1] Shortly after the First Battle of Geonosis at the opening of the Clone Wars between the Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems, clone commandos RC-1309 and RC-8015 were billeted in the barrack block, which was otherwise deserted. The area was furnished with bunks and lockers, the latter of which the commandos used to store their equipment.[2]
