[[Fireteam Crimson]] was sent to the "Fortress" to deactivate a Forerunner tower under the supervision of [[Sarah Palmer|Commander Sarah Palmer]] on [[2558|February 9th, 2558]] as part of [[Operation: CHATTERBOX]].{{Ref/Reuse|H4LE}} After taking down Forerunner communications jammers, Crimson cleared the area of Prometheans and deactivated the Forerunner structures and were extracted.{{Ref/SpOps|Departure|The Challenge}} | ||
[[Hacksaw Squad]] was sent to hold the "Fortress," but came under heavy attack by [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|Covenant]] forces. Crimson was sent in after Hacksaw radioed Palmer for assistance. Clearing through the Covenant, [[Robert Dalton]] asked Crimson and Hacksaw to go to the top of the Forerunner tower for evac. However, several [[Ru'swum-pattern Phantom|Phantoms]] arrived carrying high-ranking [[Sangheili]]. They were defeated, and Crimson and what remained of Hacksaw's survivors, if any, were transported away in a [[D79-TC Pelican|Pelican]].{{Ref/SpOps|Departure|Hacksaw}} | |||
Later, Covenant forces retook the position and [[Jul 'Mdama]] fled here from "[[Two Giants]]" after his location was discovered via [[Slipspace translocation]]. Crimson followed and arrived at the "Fortress," but was too late to catch 'Mdama as he had left to "[[The Cauldron]]" through another portal. Clearing the "Fortress" of Covenant, Crimson pursued 'Mdama, exiting the "Fortress" through a portal.{{Ref/SpOps|Departure|Random Transport}} | |||
