On [[2526#March|March 5, 2526]], Gold Team participated in [[Skirmish over Netherop|a mission]] with [[Blue Team|Blue]] and [[Green Team|Green Team]]s to board and capture a [[Covenant]] [[Covenant frigate|frigate]], ''[[Radiant Arrow]]'', in orbit over the planet [[Netherop]]. [[John-117]] was given operational command of the mission, which had the goal of recovering Covenant technology for the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] to study. To accomplish this, they were deployed from the [[prowler]] {{UNSCShip|Starry Night}} for an [[Extra-vehicular activity|extra vehicular]] [[Boarding|boarding action]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS1|HSS|Chapter=1}} With a flight of [[Type-27 Banshee]]s for cover, the Spartans stealthily approached the alien vessel.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS2|HSS|Chapter=2}} They boarded the frigate via its underslung hangar and eliminated the forces within, all without the rest of crew noticing the incursion. As Blue Team and Green Team pushed further into the alien vessel, John instructed [[Joshua-029]] and Gold Team to collect weapons and corpses to be piled into the Banshees, which were then pushed out into space for the prowlers to recover later. Once that task was completed, Gold Team acted as support for Blue and Green, watching their backs.{{Ref/Novel|Id=HSS3|HSS|Chapter=3}} | On [[2526#March|March 5, 2526]], Gold Team participated in [[Skirmish over Netherop|a mission]] with [[Blue Team|Blue]] and [[Green Team|Green Team]]s to board and capture a [[Covenant]] [[Covenant frigate|frigate]], ''[[Radiant Arrow]]'', in orbit over the planet [[Netherop]].

As the two forward teams continued on, a sensor operator aboard one of the prowlers "accidentally" broadcast a transmission on the Spartans' [[COM|SQUADCOM]], revealing their presence to the frigate's crew. Unbeknownst to them, the crewman's apparent mistake was part of an [[insurrectionist]] plot designed by [[Lieutenant Commander]] [[Hector Nyeto]], who intended to get the Spartans killed. Furious at the apparent rookie mistake and the danger that it posed, [[Daisy-023]] threatened to harm the operator responsible ''if'' they even made it off of the enemy vessel. With their presence known, Blue and Green Teams split up, with John leading his team to the bridge. Meanwhile, Gold Team was caught in a prolonged firefight with some of the crew. When they had begun to run out of ammo for their own weapons,[[Naomi-010]] was able to quickly figure out how to operate the [[Type-51 carbine|carbine]]s dropped by their adversaries. John was unable to prevent the frigate's [[shipmaster]] from activating a [[self-destruct]] sequence, forcing him to order all of his teammates to abandon ship immediately. All of the Spartans made it to safety before the ''Radiant Arrow'' detonated.{{Ref/Reuse|HSS3}} | As the two forward teams continued on, a sensor operator aboard one of the prowlers "accidentally" broadcast a transmission on the Spartans' [[COM|SQUADCOM]], revealing their presence to the frigate's crew.
