Prior to the [[Fall of Reach]], Noble Team had managed to survive countless battles, always coming back from suicide assignments, but not without a cost: only two members of the original team, Carter and Kat, remained alive by 2552.<ref name="GI">[http://gameinformer.com/mag/haloreach.aspx '''GameInformer'''] ''February 2010 issue''</ref>

Noble Team also operated with non-Spartan military personnel more extensively than other Spartan teams. To grant them more operational freedom when interacting with regular military personnel, the members of Noble Team had been given higher ranks than most of the Spartans by their [[Commanding officer|CO]].<ref name="bwu0129">[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=BWU_012910 '''Bungie.net''': ''Bungie Weekly Update: 01.29.10'']</ref> In 2552, the team was under the command of [[Colonel]] [[Urban Holland]] of the [[UNSC Army]].<ref name="reports">[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?cid=24530 '''Bungie.net''': ''NOBLE TEAM PERFORMANCE REPORTS'']</ref>

The Spartan-IIIs of Noble Team were issued with equipment on par with the Spartan-IIs, such as the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor]], which is far more advanced than the cheaper [[SPI]] armor worn by the majority of the Spartan-IIIs. The team was issued with the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark V|Mark V MJOLNIR armor]] on [[2551|November 24, 2551]]. Unlike the mainline Spartan-IIs whose armor was fairly uniform in coloration, the members of Noble Team sported a variety of color schemes and field-customized armor variants.
