Because of her inability to speak, she was to be classified as "unfit for duty," and reassigned to [[ONI]]'s psych branch for "psychological evaluation". Kurt-051 rescued her from this fate, along with Tom. Together with Tom, Lucy, and Chief Mendez, Kurt was able to train a third generation of SPARTAN-IIIs, [[SPARTAN-III Gamma Company|Gamma Company]]. Lucy, along with Tom, stayed at Camp Currahee and helped in the training until [[2552]].<ref name="g98"/>
