SURGEON was a code name adopted by an Office of Naval Intelligence operative with Section III and was a leader of Operation: HYPODERMIC in 2552. This operative's Section III Operator Number is AA2.
During the Human-Covenant War
The earliest known activity from SURGEON was in 2532, when he/she 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.[1]
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. [2]
After the war
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.
At a later date, SURGEON sent a series of four reports to COALMINER discussing the state of the post-war galaxy. In the introduction, SURGEON pondered how humanity would adapt after three decades of ceaseless war.[3][4] The first report provided intelligence on three of the Covenant's former client races.[5] The second report detailed the origins of the SPARTAN-IV Program and the Spartan branch.[6]
