'''SURGEON''' was a code name adopted by an [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] operative with Section III and was a leader of [[Operation: HYPODERMIC]] in [[2552]]. This operative's Section III Operator Number is AA2.

The earliest mention of SURGEON was in [[2532]], when he/she received [[AUTOMATED REROUTE UNSC SHIP REG-96667 ABY|a message]] concerning the [[SPARTAN-III Program|SPARTAN-III program]] from [[Codename: COALMINER]]. The message noted that the early stages of preparation for [[SPARTAN-III Alpha Company]] were progressing satisfactorily and expressed confidence in [[Kurt-051]]'s training regimen.<ref>'''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]''', "chapter 7"</ref>

SURGEON was later informed by Codename: COALMINER of a potential breach of security when [[Cortana]] broke into the ONI database and discovered that the {{UNSCShip|Circumference}} was an ONI [[UNSC prowler|Prowler]]. COALMINER then deleted the ship from the [[Reach]] database. <ref>'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', ''page 281''</ref>

On December 31, 2552, Surgeon filed a report to [[Codename: USUAL SUSPECTS]] entitled "''[[Historical/Psychological Analysis of Cole, Preston J.]]''" The extensive report outlined the life and career of [[Admiral]] [[Preston Jeremiah Cole]] and postulated that he was in fact alive and living outside UNSC-controlled space. The report was filed from the {{UNSCShip|Point of No Return}} in synchronous orbit on the far side of [[Luna]].
