Hullo!
I do see something that could work here, and work well, and that is the fact that cambridge, and New london to a lesser extent, have never really been tightly controlled by the QCRF (in my view, Deiter may disagree...) Because originaly, that was the SF's space, while we took the more northerly systems. So you could fit in there rather well.
To fill out you're RP in connection to mine, I would think that the two leading members of the baf could be the Admirals based on Cambridge and the Norfolk. Cambridge Admiral has the military industrial complex of the planet, and mostly planet defenses, with a few interstellar ships, while the Norfolk admiral commands the skies of Cambridge System everywhere but around the planet.
EDIT: Forgot to mention: Gaians! if its something bretonia could use, as alt characters, it would be some more Gaians.
