==Service history==
==History==
In [[2530|November 2530]], [[Captain (Navy)|Captain]] [[James Cutter]] decided to give his executive officer, [[Terrence Hood]], command of ''Roman Blue''. [[2531#February|Three months later]], during the [[Battle of Arcadia]], the ship was assigned to recover a [[log buoy]] dropped by the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}}. The ''Roman Blue'' was not to get involved in the battle, because [[Arcadia]] was already deemed lost. However, Hood, in his pride and anger over the losses the [[Covenant]] were dealing humanity, ordered the crew to attack the {{Pattern|Sinaris|heavy destroyer}} ''[[Radiant Perception]]''. The ''Roman Blue'' was ultimately outmatched and Hood ordered a retreat of the system, without recovering ''Spirit of Fire'''s log buoy. Consequently, Hood came to blame himself for the loss of the ''Spirit of Fire''.<ref>'''[[Halo: Escalation]]''', ''Issue #5''</ref> After the battle on Arcadia, Hood was reassigned to the frigate {{UNSCShip|Burlington}} in a fleet-support role, and command of the ship passed to Captain [[William Webb]]. In March 2531, the ''Roman Blue'' was put under repairs for a month. At some point between [[2536]] and [[2552]], the ''Roman Blue'' fought against the Covenant in the [[Ectanus 45 system]], but the cruiser was severely damaged by plasma weaponry and crashed onto the surface of the moon of a planet in the system, [[Eiro]], approximately fifty-six kilometers away from the lone settlement on the dark side of the moon.<ref name="itf248">'''[[Halo: Fractures]]''', "[[Into the Fire]]", ''page 248''</ref>
