By May 10, Colonel Akono Menteith had assumed command of the UNSC's 53rd Armored Division and gave his famous speech to the surviving UNSC forces. Later that month he led the remnants deep into Covenant-held territory in a suicidal attempt to take out three large-scale Covenant army staging areas - three of the largest in recorded history.
