After the [[Covenant]] [[First Battle of Harvest|attack]] on [[Harvest]] and the beginning of the [[Human-Covenant War]], Fred and the rest of the Spartan-IIs were brought to the [[Reach FLEETCOM Military Complex]], where [[Rear Admiral]] [[Michael Stanforth]] and the AI [[Beowulf]] briefed them on the emerging Covenant threat. In response, the training of Fred and the rest of the Spartan-IIs was accelerated, and the Spartans were sent to [[Chi Ceti IV]] in the [[Chi Ceti system]] to receive their new [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor]] from [[Damascus Materials Testing Facility]] to aid in combat against the Covenant.<ref>'''Halo: The Fall of Reach''', ''page 121'' (2010)</ref> While en route to Chi Ceti IV aboard {{Class|Paris|heavy frigate}} {{UNSCShip|Commonwealth}}, the [[frigate]] was [[Battle of Chi Ceti|attacked]] by Covenant [[warship]] ''[[Unrelenting]]''.<ref>'''Halo: The Fall of Reach''', ''page 127'' (2010)</ref> ''Commonwealth'' was able to ward off ''Unrelenting'' and the Spartans were deployed to Chi Ceti IV with Halsey, where they each retrieved a set of armor.<ref name="for141">'''Halo: The Fall of Reach''', ''page 141'' (2010)</ref> While the Spartans were returning to ''Commonwealth'', ''Unrelenting'' returned and engaged the frigate.

Shortly after their return to Earth, ''Gettysburg'' docked with the [[Borneo Space Tether]] and Fred and Linda descended the [[space elevator]] to report on Operation: FIRST STRIKE to a council of ONI officers, where they warned them of the Covenant's inevitable invasion of Earth.<ref name="h2aterm"/> During the opening stages of the Covenant invasion of Earth, Fred was subjected to a psychological analysis by ONI's Doctor [[Veronica Clayton]].

However, [[Fleet Admiral]] [[Terrence Hood]], who had not authorized the analysis, soon arrived and had Clayton escorted away.

It only took a few minutes to traverse the portal through slipspace.<ref name="HBB1">''[[Halo: Bad Blood]]'', ''Chapter 1''</ref> When the Pelican emerged, the Spartans found themselves flying through a cavernous cave, which they excited to be faced with a deep [[Sanghelios]] night. Fred asked whether the planet was always as it was then, to which Vale replied by pointing out Cortana that would definitely have sent a [[Guardian Custode|Guardian]] there. Fred noted that ''India 127'''s navigation system put them relatively near the major [[Sangheili]] city of [[Sunaion]] off the coast of [[Qivro]], and yet no sign of it could be seen. Locke soon mentioned that if they could get back to the ''Infinity'', Halsey might be able to work out a solution, which caught Fred and the other [[Spartan-II]]s by surprise. Both Locke and Buck explained that they had rescued the doctor from Jul 'Mdama and brought her back to the Infinity and that she had subsequently insisted on accompanying them to Sanghelios. Fred noted that nobody knew Cortana better than Doctor Halsey did. [[Olympia Vale]] guessed that the [[Swords of Sanghelios]] were likely still camped in [[Nuusra]] where they had recently staged [[Battle of Sunaion|an attack]] on [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant]] from just days prior. Fred cautioned that any UNSC personnel that were still there when a Guardian arrived may have been in the air at the time, but this specific worry ultimately did not amount to anything. Before long fires were spotted that indicated the location of a Sangheili encampment where they expected the Swords to be. Soon enough the leaders of each respective team were being met at the bottom of the Pelican's ramp by [[Thel 'Vadam|the Arbiter]], Commander [[Sarah Palmer]], and Doctor Halsey. After everyone had disembarked they were welcomed by the [[Arbiter]], [[Thel 'Vadam]], and John introduced him to Fred, Linda, and Kelly. 'Vadam invited them all to join in a celebratory meal commemorating their victory over the last of Jul 'Mdama's Covenant. Halsey revealed that she had gotten a message from [[Roland]] on the ''Infinity'' and that it would be appearing off of the far side of [[Suban]] the following day at 1800 hours. Now that they had transportation, they could be there waiting for it when it showed. Fred and the others then took off their helmets and joined the Sangheili in dining on [[colo]] and [[kuscatu]]. During the meal Fred, Linda, Kelly, John, and Halsey went off on their own for a time to talk.<ref name="HBB1"/> | It only took a few minutes to traverse the portal through slipspace.<ref name="HBB1">''[[Halo: Bad Blood]]'', ''Chapter 1''</ref> When the Pelican emerged, the Spartans found themselves flying through a cavernous cave, which they excited to be faced with a deep [[Sanghelios]] night.
