{{Main|Operation: JOVIAN WHISTLE}}
In [[2553#May|May 2553]], Blue Team was attached to ONI's [[717th Xeno-Materials Exploitation Battalion]] [[Operation: JOVIAN WHISTLE|deployed]] to the [[Outer Colony]] of [[Gao]] to search for a [[Forerunner]] [[ancilla]], [[Intrepid Eye]], that had been detected on the planet by the battalion's [[Commander]] [[Murtag Nelson]]. The UNSC's presence on the planet was largely undesired by the traditionally independent Gao. For over a month, the UNSC attempted to capture the ancilla, who, in turn, regularly harassed the 717th with her [[Aggressor Sentinel]]s. Additionally, upon learning of the UNSC's intentions, Intrepid Eye began covertly murdering Gao citizens in the [[Montero Cave System]] in an effort to create discord between the Gaos and the UNSC. The [[Gao Ministry of Protection]] dispatched [[Special inspector|Special Inspector]] [[Veta Lopis]] to find the murderer and Nelson had members of Blue Team aid her in her efforts to allow the UNSC to return searching for the ancilla without the Gaos' interference. Lopis was initially convinced that the murderer was one of the Spartans, with Mark in particular eventually drawing her suspicions due to his often standoffish and ruthless behavior.{{Ref/Reuse|hll}}

After another twelve hours, the group eventually reached the [[Gallery of the Inverted Forest]] where Fred managed to capture Intrepid Eye's [[inspection drone]] shell with a [[scramble grenade]]. The group surfaced at the embattled village of [[Wendosa]] and proceeded to reinforce the 717th, which had fallen under attack by the Keepers. During the ensuing battle, Mark encountered Marine Sergeant [[Nguyen]] and, believing him to be an enemy infiltrator due to his paranoid state caused by his Smoother deprivation, Mark took the sergeant hostage and held a [[combat knife]] to his throat. However, Fred was able to convince Mark to release the Marine, who informed Fred that he was to return to the [[Montero Vitality Center]] with the ancilla. The group fought their way through Wendosa and Fred boarded a [[UH-144 Falcon|Falcon]], but the craft was shot down and crashed in the jungle several [[kilometer]]s away.{{Ref/Reuse|hll}}

*Mark seemingly has a big head, which was remarked upon by his teammates in a joking manner. According to [[Ash-G099]], its not just Mark's ego as Ash claimed to have tried on Mark's helmet and described it as being like wearing a ten-liter bucket. Mark was surprised when Ash told him this, suggesting that he didn't know.<ref>'''[[Halo: Fractures]]''', "[[A Necessary Truth]]", ''page 275''</ref>

*Mark's armor, as depicted in ''[[Halo Mythos: A Guide to the Story of Halo|Halo Mythos]]'', bears a notable similarity to a piece of ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' concept art (shown below), an exploration of the game's Spartan-III design language. Notably, both images were painted by [[Isaac Hannaford]].

*The 2022 [[Winter Update]] for Halo Infinite added an Easter Egg in the form of a weekly challenge called "Spartan G-313" which required players to use the Ping feature to "mark" enemies and kill them with a headshot or kill enemies "marked" by teammates.
