DATE: December 9, 2525 (Military Calendar)
LOCATION: Eridanus Star System
Involved: UNSC SPARTAN-IIs John-117, Frederic-104, Kelly-087, Linda-058, and Sam-034 against Eridanus Rebels.
Synopsis: The Spartans were deployed at a space dock orbiting Eridanus II with orders to locate and capture the rebel leader Robert Watts.
Outcome: The Spartans successfully located Watts's base of operations, infiltrated the base and captured him. However, they were unable to make a stealthy infiltration, and as a result some of the surviving rebels witnessed their superhuman abilities. Despite this, the rebels never found the locator beacon that the Spartans left behind.
Despite the mission's success, SPARTAN-117 reported having a feeling of unease as they left the station, possibly due to the fact that it was the first time he'd had to deliberately use deadly force against Human beings.[1]
