In [[2554]], the United Rebel Front launched an invasion of the newly resettled colony of [[Draco III]], occupying the capital city of [[New Albany]] and establishing themselves in the capital building. The UNSC immediately responded to the threat, deploying [[ODST]]s and a team of [[SPARTAN-IV]]s led by [[Sarah Palmer]] to eliminate the threat. These URF forces, led by Captain [[Ingridson]] attempted to defend their hold on the city, but were swiftly routed by the UNSC who regained control of the city as the surviving URF forces made a last stand in the capital building.

In their final stand against the ODSTs and Spartan forces, the URF soldiers were wiped out and Ingridson neutralized, but not before executing the Rookie during Alpha-Nine's attempt to save him. The entire URF force was killed or captured, effectively restoring order to Draco III. | ||

In response, the UNSC sent [[SPARTAN-IV]]s [[Edward Buck]], [[Michael Crespo]] and [[Kojo Agu]] to rescue them, but Crespo had been colluding with the URF and helped set a trap for the rest of his team. Even though Buck and Agu were captured by a large number of rebels led by [[Schein|Dr. Schein]], they ultimately managed to fight off the rebels and the rogue Spartan and successfully rescued Sadie and Vergil.<ref>'''Halo: New Blood''', Chapter 17</ref> | ||
