Team Foxtrot was one of the fireteams of Spartan-III Beta Company involved in Operation: TORPEDO, and was the team that Tom-B292 and Lucy-B091 served as part of until the other two members were killed during this operation.[1]

History[edit]

Training[edit]

Ever since they volunteered for the program circa 2539,[2][3][Note 1] Team Foxtrot trained together under the watchful eye of Lieutenant Commander Kurt Ambrose. By 2541, they were doing well in their academical studies.[4]

Operation: TORPEDO[edit]

Main article: Operation: TORPEDO

In Operation: TORPEDO, Beta Company, including Team Foxtrot, were sent on a mission to destroy a large Covenant refinery on Pegasi Delta. Severely outnumbered, the team made a mad rush to the factory, realizing it was their only hope. Adam was shot in the back and stayed behind to buy time,[1] while Min was vaporized when his explosive charge prematurely detonated due to the electro-magnetic field emanating from the reactor.[1]

The only two surviving members of Team Foxtrot, and of the entire Beta Company, were Tom-B292 and Lucy-B091. Lucy became mute due to posttraumatic vocal disarticulation and never spoke again[1] until years later inside of the Sarcophagus shield world.[5]

Notes[edit]

  1. ^ Lessons Learned establishes that Tom-B292 and Lucy-B091 were six years old when they started their training. Page 106 of the Halo Encyclopedia (2022 edition) establishes that Tom and Lucy were born on April 14, 2533 and January 28, 2533, respectively. This makes Beta Company's start date somewhere between April 2539 and January 2540.
