The | '''The Battle of New Constantinople''' was a major engagement in the New Constantinople | ||
system between [[UNSC]] and [[Covenant]] forces that occurred some time in late [[2536]] or early [[2537]]. | |||
[[Vice Admiral]] [[Danforth Whitcomb]] distinguished himself in the battle and was awarded several decorations for his actions. Unfortunately, the battle was lost and the Covenant eventually [[glassed]] the planet. | |||
The [[Spartan-III]]'s [[Alpha Company]] fought well in the engagement and were highly distinguished for their actions during the engagement.<ref>[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]] page 81</ref> | |||
