Operating from [[Base Segundo Terra]], Blue Team was deployed to Havana on a [[D77H-TCI Pelican]] piloted by [[Sergeant]] [[Laura Tanner]] with [[Jim Higgins]] as its crew chief.{{Ref/Reuse|goo204}} Three Covenant [[capital ship]]s hung in low orbit above Havana, and [[Type-26 Ground Support Aircraft|Banshee]] patrols circled around the orbital elevator. Spotting a hole in a Banshee patrol pattern, the Pelican dropped the team down into the jungle. They moved out northeast, towards the space elevator where the jungle ended at the warehouse complex of the COE. | Operating from [[Base Segundo Terra]], Blue Team was deployed to Havana on a [[D77H-TCI Pelican]] piloted by [[Sergeant]] [[Laura Tanner]] with [[Jim Higgins]] as its crew chief.{{Ref/Reuse|goo204}} Three Covenant [[capital ship]]s hung in low orbit above Havana, and [[Type-26 Ground Support Aircraft|Banshee]] patrols circled around the orbital elevator.

Observing the area through her [[SRS99C-S2 AM sniper rifle|sniper rifle]] [[Oracle scope|scope]], Linda spotted a group of dead Marines and a dozen [[Jiralhanae]] moving in groups of four towards the space elevator, carrying cargo pods containing the nukes. The Spartans made a plan; they would part ways, with Will and Fred moving to opposite directions while Linda would provide cover for the team with her sniper rifle. In one of the garages, there was a massive tank truck full of explosive fuel which Will would use to disable the Scarab, while Fred would move to the elevator's base and secure the ascent car.{{Ref/Reuse|twentythree}} | ||
As Fred advanced, Linda provided him cover, killing Jiralhanae patrols headed his way. As Fred sprinted closer to the elevator, he ran into a single Jiralhanae. After Fred had neutralized the alien, he took its [[Type-25 Grenade Launcher|weapon]]. Meanwhile, Will crashed the huge tanker out of a garage, through a gate, and straight to the Scarab. The explosion engulfed the walker, destroyed its core and completely obliterated it.{{Ref/Novel|Id=goo209|Novel=Halo: Ghosts of Onyx|Chapter=23|Page=209}} | As Fred advanced, Linda provided him cover, killing Jiralhanae patrols headed his way.
