== | ==Operational history== | ||
The | The {{UNSCship|Persian Gate}} rendezvoused with the {{UNSCship|Commonwealth}} near [[Chi Ceti IV]] in late November of [[2525]].<ref name="HCD1"/> A complement of [[Spartan-II]]s were transferred to the ''Persian Gate'', along with Dr. [[Catherine Halsey]]. It held orbit over the planet while a funeral service for the recently-deceased [[Sam-034]] was held and then entered [[slipspace]]. Two days later, on December 3, Lieutenant Commander [[Yao]] briefed the four [[Spartans]] selected for [[Blue Team]] on the ongoing attack of [[Alpha Corvi II]] by the [[Covenant]] and their mission to provide its defenders with relief.<ref name="HCD1">''[[Halo: Collateral Damage]]'', ''[[Halo: Collateral Damage Issue 1|Issue #1]]''</ref> | ||
Upon the mission's completion, ''Persian Gate'' moved in with the rest of the UNSC fleet to retrieve Blue Team, deploying Pelican dropship [[Tango 360]] to the surface while the remaining UNSC warships fought a holding action against the advancing Covenant. Tango 360 retrieved the Spartans, returning to the ''Persian Gate'' but abandoning the surviving URF fighters against [[John-117]]'s protests. The ''Persian Gate'' then fled into [[slipspace]] as the Covenant opened fire on the UNSC fleet. | |||
