==The battle==
After the planet was attacked by the Covenant and their Promethean allies, a joint [[Spartan (branch)|Spartan]]-[[UNSC Marine Corps]] operation was deployed in response to the attack. During the battle, Spartan [[Gabriel Thorne|Thorne]] was ambushed by a [[Promethean Knight]] but he was saved by Commander Palmer. With the Prometheans' presence, Palmer ordered all UNSC forces to search and find Jul 'Mdama. Meanwhile, Spartan [[Joel Thomas]] ordered an airstrike on two [[Type-44 Phantom]]s near Palmer's position. Palmer ordered Thorne to get to a [[M12 Warthog LRV]] and pursue the Phantoms, but they were ambushed and pursued by [[Promethean Crawlers]]. They dispatched several of the Crawlers and Palmer jumped out of a cliff, directly above the Phantoms. The Warthog landed on the ground, injuring Thorne, and the Phantoms prepared to shoot their [[heavy plasma cannon]]s at them. However, a [[GA-TL1 Longsword]] appeared, destroying both Phantoms, and saving Palmer's and Thorne's lives.<ref name="HE13"/>
