During the [[Fall of Reach]], a Spartan team consisting of Spartans [[SPARTAN NOLA|NOLA]] and [[SPARTAN NV66|NV66]] was sent to acquire and protect data relating to improving MJOLNIR armor. The team was ultimately successful with this endeavor, and was able to send the data to a remote archival station for safekeeping.
