Tribute was a site of ongoing resistance from [[Insurrectionist]] forces in [[2524]] during [[Operation: TREBUCHET]], and so a [[battalion]] of [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] [[~~uNSC~~ Marine Corps|marines]] were operating in and around Casbah that year, searching for Insurrectionist bomb makers, supported by the [[corvette]] {{UNSCShip|Bum Rush}} and [[AV-14 Hornet|Hornet]] aircraft. They found one such bomb shop, and though they were able to neutralize the facility, the marines were unable to prevent some of the bombs from making their way into Casbah, which lead to a disastrous hostage situation inside one of the Jim Dandy restaurants, resulting in the deaths of 3 marines, 38 civilians, and 2 rebels<ref>'''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]''', ''page 20''</ref>.
