Order of Battle
The Covenant came to Jericho VII and battled UNSC forces above the planet for five days in a long stalemate.

Meanwhile, on the ground, Spartan-117 and his group of Spartans massacre the Covenant forces. Several Spartans are able to kill hundreds of Grunts with little difficulty, and destroy their Banshee air support quickly.

The Marines, operating elsewhere, suffered little casualties and easily accomplished their goals too.

Unfortunately, in space, the UNSC lost after five days. Captain De Blanc brings the Spartans home, but Spartan-117 has a special request: He wants to watch the planet get glassed and watches for five hours.

The drink Alt Burgundy became a rarity after the battle, as it was manufactured on Jericho VII.
