Thirteen dead Spartans

This unidentified SPARTAN unit, consisted of at least thirteen SPARTAN-IIIs, served during the final stages of the Fall of Reach in 2552 at the Battle of Aszod.

Overview
The team's mission is unknown, but it can be assumed that they were deployed to fend off the Covenant attack on the Aszod territory near the ship breaking facilities. SPARTAN-B312 discovered the bodies of thirteen members of the team during the closing stages of the Fall of Reach. It is possible, though unlikely, that some members survived, as the team's composition is unknown. The team may have included all or part of either Echo or Gauntlet teams, or both, as both teams were present on Reach during the invasion.
