At some point, the fleet was involved in the [[Battle of Camber|assault]] on [[Camber]], a human colony that manufactured [[UNSC Navy]] fleet materials. The Fleet of Particular Justice caught the UNSC forces on the planet completely unaware. Supreme Commander 'Vadamee led the ground and orbital assault before most of the planet was aware of the attack. While seventeen vessels in the fleet bombarded key defensive positions, 'Vadamee personally led an attack on the UNSC system headquarters. After most of the human forces on the planet were wiped out, 'Vadamee returned to his [[flagship]] and the planet was glassed.<ref name="h2at2">'''Halo 2: Anniversary''', ''[[Terminal | At some point, the fleet was involved in the [[Battle of Camber|assault]] on [[Camber]], a human colony that manufactured [[UNSC Navy]] fleet materials.
