Red Team

Red Team is a United Nations Space Command infantry team.

It was composed of two dozen SPARTAN-IIs, and actively participated in several battles, including the Second Battle of Harvest, the Battle of Arcadia, the Battle of Sigma Octanus IV and the Battle of Reach.

In 2531, Red Team was a three-person unit comprised of Douglas-042, Jerome-092 and Alice-130, and participated in the Battle of Arcadia, where it linked up with forces from the to evacuate Arcadian civilians, staying with the ships forces. After the ships crew managed to destroy a Forerunner Shield World, destroying a fleet the Covenant planned to reverse-engineer and use to swiftly destroy humanity, the Spartans were presumed MIA with the rest of the ships crew. The moniker of "Red Team" passed to Frederic-104 and his Spartans.

The SPARTAN-II "aura of invincibility" was shattered by the massive casualties inflicted on Red Team because of their combat with far superior numbers of Covenant forces on Reach. Though inflicting heavy damage on the Covenant, including destroying a Covenant cruiser and a military base set up to secure the ground, many were killed in the insertion and in the subsequent engagements.

During the Reach campaign, Red Team was split up into four, smaller teams. These teams were: Team Alpha, Team Beta, Team Gamma and Team Delta.

Red Team was commanded by SPARTAN-104 (Fred) with his second-in-command being SPARTAN-087 (Kelly). SPARTAN-029 (Joshua) assumed command of Red Team on Sigma Octanus IV.
