'''Operation: SHELL GAME''' was an [[operation]] of the [[United Nations Space Command]] that was initiated in [[2556]], prior to July 12 of that year. It involved the deployment of the [[Spartan-IV]] fireteam, [[Fireteam Apollo]], to the exclusion zone around the debris of [[Installation 04]] near [[Threshold]] in violation of the [[Treaty of 2552]].<ref name="loot3"/> The [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] was intimately involved in the operation, as its purpose lay in the search for something of interest to the organization among the debris. Apollo managed to recover the black-box of the crashed [[Covenant]] {{Class|CCS|battlecruiser}}, ''[[Undiminished Entelechy]]''. It yielded audio of words spoken between [[Supreme Commander]] [[Thel 'Vadamee]] and the [[Prophet of Stewardship]] from the earliest moments of the [[Battle of Installation 04]]. In addition to this, the operation resulted in the creation of two [[War Games]] maps set onboard the ''Undiminished Entelechy''.<ref name="cannonfodder">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/community/blog-posts/canon-fodder-beta-late-than-never '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Canon Fodder: Beta Late Than Never'']</ref> On [[2556#October|October 31, 2556]], [[General]] [[R.
