Starfleet 7th Fleet
Memory Beta, the wiki for licensed Star Trek content.
The Starfleet 7th Fleet was a military unit, a fleet group of the Federation Starfleet during the Dominion War. The 7th was heavily embattled during the war.
Three months into the war, the Seventh Fleet was employed to stop the Jem'Hadar in the Tyra system in 2374, and only 14 ships survived of the original 112 engaged there. (DS9 episode: "A Time to Stand", DS9 novelization: "Call to Arms...")
They again took heavy losses at Sybaron, and was still at half strength during the assault on the Tibor Nebula. Benjamin Sisko was on Earth when the Seventh Fleet was attacked by the Dominion. (DS9 episode: "The Reckoning", DS9 novel: Hollow Men)
In 2375, the 7th Fleet, including the USS Destiny, launched an assault on the Kalandra sector, based on intelligence from Elim Garak that the Cardassians forces were weak there. (DS9 episode: "Afterimage")
[edit] Apocrypha
The RPG The Dominion War Sourcebook: The Fires of Armageddon, published by Last Unicorn Games after they had lost their Star Trek licence, states that the 7th fleet was under the command of Admiral Bellamy and included the USS Kymyr, USS Iberia, USS Shima'van and USS Tyler.
