Blue Team[1] is a United Nations Space Command SPARTAN-II military element.

Introduction

"Blue Team" was made famous because it was the designation for a prestigious SPARTAN-II squad whose roster included SPARTAN-117. But because of the ambiguity of this name, "Blue Team" may be used as the callsign for other UNSC military elements. This, however, has not been definitively proven. Blue Team has participated in hundreds of combat missions against a plethora of different foes, including, but not limited to: Human rebels, Covenant forces, and Forerunner constructs.

Dossier

After its conception in 2513, Blue Team usually consisted of five members. The team was originally comprised of SPARTAN-117 (John), SPARTAN-034, (Sam), SPARTAN-087 (Kelly), SPARTAN-058 (Linda), and SPARTAN-104 (Fred). After Sam's death on the Covenant starship in the Chi Ceti System, his vacant spot was taken by SPARTAN-051 (Kurt)[2]. After Kurt's faked death by Office of Naval Intelligence Beta-5 Division, it is unknown who took his place on the squad's roll.

History

Training

Before the SPARTAN-IIs were deployed onto the battlefield, Blue Team often exercised versus fellow SPARTAN-II Green Team, led by SPARTAN-051 (Kurt), and "often lost"[3] because of Kurt's superior "sixth sense". Blue Team was formed around John-117, Kelly-087, and Sam-034, who met on thei first day of induction into the SPARTAN-II program.

2525

In the first UNSC military operation where the SPARTAN-IIs were put to the test after their intensive training, Blue Team was sent to infiltrate the Eridanus Rebel space station Jefferson in the Eridanus Asteroid Belt. Blue Team stole aboard a Parabola-class Freighter, the Laden, and managed to sneak aboard Jefferson. Their objective was to capture the rebel leader ex-Colonel Robert Watts, a UNSC turncoat.

With minimal attention, Blue Team managed to kill several of Watt's guards, and subdue him with polypseudomorphine, a sedative. Then, Blue Team hijacked a rebel Pelican Dropship, and SPARTAN-034 set and detonated explosive charges in the rebel base's hangar, making good their escape, but at the cost of dozens of civilians' lives. Blue Team was successful in its objective.

Côte d'Azur

Blue Team is not always neccessarily comprised of these members at all. We see that in Fall of Reach, that the Master Chief picks James and Linda to be on his team, and sent the rest to the surface of Reach. Also, on the final page of Ghosts of Onyx, we see that the Spartan III's Ash, Mark, and Olivia joined Kelly, Fred, and Linda in Blue Team.
