== Fall of Reach ==
==Biography==
On August 30<sup>th</sup>, 2552, Red Team was deployed to the surface of [[Reach]] from the {{UNSCship|Pillar of Autumn}}. After their Pelican dropship, ''[[Bravo 001]]'', was shot down, the SPARTANs were forced to make a high-altitude jump to the ground, killing four of them. Upon regrouping, [[Frederic-104]] divided Red Team into four splinter groups, including the eleven-member Team Beta.  
===Conscription===
"Beta-Romeo Actual" was of a genetic make-up that Doctor [[Catherine Halsey]] regarded as desirable for the SPARTAN-II program. After being selected as a suitable candidate for the SPARTAN-II program in [[2517]], she was abducted and sent to [[Reach]], where she was specially trained to be a soldier by [[Chief Petty Officer]] [[Franklin Mendez]] and the [[artificial intelligence]] [[Déja]].


In [[2525]], she and the other candidates underwent a [[Project ASTER|series of augmentations]] to improve their physical and mental abilities.<ref>'''Halo: The Fall of Reach'''</ref>
Team Beta was then assigned to defend one of the planet's [[Orbital Defense Generator]]s against the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]]. As a force of thirty-two Covenant [[Type-25 Assault Gun Carriage|Wraiths]] and 260 infantry advanced toward a UNSC position, Beta Red Actual ordered his team to move forward and engage the attackers in close combat. After the SPARTANs broke the Covenant assault wave, Beta Red Actual instructed Gamma 1, another UNSC operator, to withdraw his forces from the area. As the SPARTANs defended against two armored divisions, three [[Covenant cruiser]]s emerged from cloak and headed toward the UNSC position.  


===Fall of Reach===
The {{UNSCship|Majestic}} was then ordered by [[Central Command]] to bombard the approaching Covenant forces. The ''Majestic'' fired six [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannon|MAC]] rounds onto the target area. Beta Red Actual, as well as all the other members of Team Beta, were killed in the blast.

Barely evading the cruisers, [[Pelican]] dropship pilot [[Iron Fist]] made a daring attempt to retrieve Beta-Red. However, [[Central Command]] ordered the destroyer {{UNSCShip|Majestic}} to bombard the approaching Covenant forces. ''Majestic'' then fired six [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannon|MAC]] rounds onto the target area.
