John's first battle egainst the Covenant was on a covenant ship just after they received the Mark IV armor. All Spartans launched with thrusters from a pelican. Each Spartan carried an Anvil missile with them to destroy the ship. Only three Spartans entered through a hole in the hull of the ship, which was put there by a MAC round. These Spartans where [[Sam-034]] and [[Kelly-087]]. They succeeded the mission and blew up the Covenant ship, but lost Sam in the progress. This showed John that the Covenant could be beaten, but at a high cost. It was the first victory for the UNSC egainst the Covenant. | |||
