Meanwhile, on the ground, Blue Team Members: [[Spartan-117|Blue-One]], [[Spartan-087|Two]], [[Spartan-104|Three]], [[Spartan-043|Four]], and [[Spartan-058|Five]] massacred the Covenant forces. Blue Team's mission was to draw out the Covenant rear guard, so Red Team could slip through and plant a [[HAVOK]] tactical nuke for the next Covenant ship that landed and dropped it's shields. Several Spartans are able to kill hundreds of [[Grunts]] with little difficulty, and destroy their [[Banshee]] air support and [[Shade]] ground support quickly.

The [[Marines]], operating elsewhere, suffered minor casualties and easily accomplished their goals as well. The [[105th Drop Jet Platoon]] were slaughtered by the thousands of [[Grunt]]s on the ground. Blue Team countered by killing hundreds of Grunts in one mission. All of the Spartan teams easily accomplished their missions safely and returned to the fleet in a [[Pelican dropship]].
