'''Battle Group Rhino''' was a [[Battle group|formation]] of the [[UNSC Navy]]'s [[Third Fleet]]. It was led by [[Captain]] [[W. Murray]] at the close of the [[Human-Covenant War]]. On [[2552#October|October 10, 2552]], Battle Group Rhino detected twelve unidentified [[Covenant Fleet|large vessels]] in the [[Sol system]] broadcasting outdated [[civilian]] [[IFF]] codes. Upon approach, eleven of the vessels made unauthorized [[slipspace]] transits from the Sol system. Pursuant to standing orders to engage vessels not positively identified as friendly, Battle Group Rhino moved to engage the remaining ship. | '''Battle Group Rhino''' was a [[Battle group|formation]] of the [[UNSC Navy]]'s [[Third Fleet]].

The battle group then disengaged and regrouped at [[Phase Line Alpha]] above [[Enceladus]]. [[Vice Admiral]] [[Williams]], in charge of the entire Third Fleet, requested permission from [[Fleet Admiral]] [[Harper]] to attack the ship, but permission was denied. The brief spout of violence in which the ''Totem Lake'' was lost came to be known simply as the [[Battle of October 10]].<ref name="loot2">'''[[Halo Legendary Crate]]''', ''[[Halo Legendary Crate/Data Drops|Data Drop #2]]''</ref> | ||
