'''SURGEON''' was a code name adopted by a male [[ONI]] operative and leader of [[Operation: HYPODERMIC]] in [[2552]]. "Surgeon" was contacted by [[Codename: COALMINER]] of a potential breach of security when [[Cortana]] broke into the [[ONI]] database and discovered that the ''[[Circumference]]'' was an ONI [[Prowler]].

Biography[edit]

ORION Project[edit]

Morales was once a part of the ORION Project[2] with James James, Janissary James' father.[3] He was a friend of both James and Gilly and kept in touch with them in civilian life.[4] Octavio and his son, Kevin Morales, met Jan at James James' funeral.[5]

Human-Covenant War[edit]

The earliest known activity from SURGEON was in 2532, when he received a message concerning the SPARTAN-III program from Codename: COALMINER. The message noted that the early stages of preparation for SPARTAN-III Alpha Company were progressing satisfactorily and expressed confidence in Kurt-051's training regimen.[6]

SURGEON was later informed by Codename: COALMINER of a potential breach of security when Cortana broke into the ONI database and discovered that the UNSC Circumference was an ONI Prowler. COALMINER then deleted the ship from the Reach database.[7]

Post-war[edit]

On December 31, 2552, SURGEON filed a report to Codename: USUAL SUSPECTS entitled "Historical/Psychological Analysis of Cole, Preston J." The extensive report outlined the life and career of Admiral Preston J. Cole and postulated that he was in fact alive and living outside UNSC-controlled space. The report was filed from the UNSC Point of No Return in synchronous orbit on the far side of Luna.

Around or after December 15, 2554[8][9], SURGEON sent a series of five reports to COALMINER discussing the state of the post-war galaxy.

After a terrorist attack on the human colony of Sedra in early February of 2556, SURGEON received a report made by Codename: FIXER about the story of the Alerian mining union Mols'Desias, and mentioning the Sedran medic Brynn Morad trying to get access to Indrid Lota's medic file.[10]

By November 4, 2559, Morales was stationed at Research Center Oscar at the Portal at Voi, East African Protectorate.[1]
