After the detection of Forerunner activity on the planet [[Gao]] on April 14, [[2553]], [[CINCONI]] [[Margaret Parangosky]] gave command of battalion to [[Commander]] [[Murtag Nelson]] and deployed it to the planet in order to secure a hypothesized Forerunner [[ancilla]].<ref name="LL23">'''Halo: Last Light''', ''page 23''</ref> The battalion's deployment, however, angered many of Gao's anti-centralist citizens. During the course of the expedition, numerous people were found murdered in Gao's [[Montero Cave System]], which launched a joint UNSC-[[Gao Ministry of Protection]] investigation into the murders. The UNSC believed that the murders were committed by radicals wishing to blame them on the UNSC occupation, while many of the Gaos were convinced the UNSC to be responsible.<ref>'''Halo: Last Light''', ''page 30''</ref> | After the detection of Forerunner activity on the planet [[Gao]] on April 14, [[2553]], [[CINCONI]] [[Margaret Parangosky]] gave command of battalion to [[Commander]] [[Murtag Nelson]] and deployed it to the planet in order to secure a hypothesized Forerunner [[ancilla]].<ref name="LL23">'''Halo: Last Light''', ''page 23''</ref> The battalion's deployment, however, angered many of Gao's anti-centralist citizens.
