WEDGE: Target one of your Personalities. You can not target cards in his unit with actions until after this battle ends. After this battle’s Resolution Segment begins, double his Force and the Force of each Follower in his unit. Destroy him after the battle ends.

COURAGE IN DEATH: Before one of your Personalities is destroyed during battle: Give another target Personality a Force bonus equal to your Personality's Chi. If you are a Crab Clan player, delay your Personality's destruction until after the battle ends.

Can i react with courage in death (in order to use the Force bonus, not the anti-kill) after one of my personality is destroyed by Wedge? I do not think the timing is OK, but one never knows...

Thanks again for your time.

No. Wedge specifically says it destroys after battle, Courage in Death is triggered during battle.
