===Return to Reach===
{{Main|Operation: WOLFE}}
{{Expand-section}}
In [[2559#October|October 2559]], Fred took part in [[Operation: WOLFE]], a mission to secure assets from the ruins of [[CASTLE Base]] on [[Reach]] for Halsey, coming into conflict with the [[Banished]]. In the tunnels near the [[Menachite portal complex]], Fred was reunited with [[Veta Lopis]], an encounter which shocked him as Lopis and the [[Ferret]]s had been [[missing in action]] and presumed dead for over two years. Working undercover in the [[Keepers of the One Freedom]], Lopis passed Fred a message capsule to give to [[ONI]] containing a warning about the return of [[Atriox]], the Banished leader. Upon returning to the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}, Fred handed the message over to Captain [[Veronica Dare]] and attempted to find out more about the Ferrets. However, Dare didn't know anything about their mission with [[John-117]] noting that Fred had taken Lopis' presumed demise hard as they had grown "kinda close." Dare borrowed Fred's [[combat knife]] and cut off the top third of the message, stating that ONI didn't need to know and handed it to Fred, suggesting that Lopis had left Fred a personal message as well. Fred expressed gratitude for Dare's kindness, giving her the Spartan version of a smile and she promised to keep Fred informed of anything that she learned about the Ferrets.<ref name="SoR">''[[Halo: Shadows of Reach]]''</ref>
