Not much is know about this battle except that it took place in 2549 and Sergeant Avery Johnson distinguished himself in this major conflict, on the planet Paris IV.

By using a crate of plasma grenades he was able to hold off the Covenant troops with his forces at the main evac complex long enough for the evacuation ships to leave and get into orbit. He was extracted with severe injuries along with his men, but lived.

Official records state that radiation exposure from the plasma grenades gave Johnson Boren's Syndrome. However, this information was spread as part of an ONI cover-up to conceal Johnson's past as a Spartan I, and may or may not be factual.

Sgt. Johnson received a Commendation for Bravery during the mission.
