| '''Operation: KALEIDOSCOPE''' was a series of highly-classified surgical strikes against prominent leaders of various [[insurrectionist]] groups that was initiated by the [[United Nations Space Command]] at the start of the 26th century. | | '''DATE:''' 2505 |

| ==The operation==
| | '''LOCATION:''' [[Harvest]] |
| In [[2502]], the UNSC decided to change its tactics when it came to combating the [[Insurrection]]. Instead of expending great amounts of resources fighting the rebels in large-scale theaters of combat, a new emphasis was put on assassinating key figures. Over the next five years, UNSC assassins targeted multiple individuals, successfully killing [[Molin Saal]], [[Jerald Ander]], [[Standish Kable]], and [[Elanor Kef]].{{Ref/Book|Halo Mythos|Page=55}}

| Jerald Ander, the leader of the [[Secessionist Union]], was killed by [[Corporal]] [[Avery Junior Johnson|Avery Johnson]] on March 13, [[2502]]. The [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] [[UNSC Special Forces|NAVSPECWAR]], specifically [[ORION Project|Project: ORION]], sent Johnson to [[Harvest]] to carry out the strike. This assignment was Johnson's final test for the [[Naval Special Warfare Sniper School]].{{Ref/Novel|Halo: Contact Harvest|Page=64}} Johnson and another UNSC Marine, his spotter, acquired a position a fair distance from the target and Johnson set up an [[Model 99 Special Application Scoped Rifle|M99 "Stanchion" rifle]]. When Ander's truck passed by, Johnson took the shot and successfully killed Ander, effectively ending the threat posed by the Secessionist Union.{{Ref/Comic|HGN|Page=122}}
