By 2531 [[United Rebel Front]] had repeatedly had its operations disrupted by a four-man team of Spartan-II supersoldiers known as [[Blue Team]]. The team disrupted URF operations including [[Station Jefferson]], the destroyer ''[[Origami]]'' and a saboteur cell on [[Reach]], as well as an incident in [[Micronesia]], and a high-explosives manufacturing facility at an unspecified location.<ref>'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', page 36-37</ref> In response the rebels gathered together three stolen [[FENRIS nuclear warhead|FENRIS Nuclear Warheads]] at Camp New Hope in a way so sloppy that the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] could not help but notice, then contacted the UNSC and offered to trade the nukes in exchange for medicines for their people suffering from [[Boren's Syndrome]]. They then set a trap for Blue Team, whom they anticipated would be sent. They successfully ambushed [[John-117]], [[Frederic-104]], [[Kelly-087]] and [[Linda-058]] using an [[Antigravity plate|Antigravity Plate]], however were unaware of the presence of a fifth Spartan and new addition to the team, [[Kurt-051]], who had avoided the trap. Kurt was able to free the other members of Blue Team and they then retreated from the camp with the recovered warheads. Rebel leader General [[Howard Graves]] was killed in the process.
