Commandeering a truck, the squad made their way into the town and Samrat helped clear the area as they forced their way into the facility. After retrieving the data chip, Buck and Samrat hid under the tarp of a flatbed truck [[Gomez (ODST)|Gomez]] found to extract the team with. However, Buck quickly ordered them back in once he heard a distress call from Gamma Six's [[Sarah Palmer|sole survivor]]. Once back in the main plaza, Samrat found himself pinned down against several [[Banshee]] fighters as the squad helped retrieve Gamma-Six's fallen troopers. He managed to fend them off and later tried resuscitating the members of Gamma-Six on their way back to base.<ref name="nb39">'''Halo: New Blood''', ''page 39''</ref> | Commandeering a truck, the squad made their way into the town and Samrat helped clear the area as they forced their way into the facility.
