*The Spartans' mission, location, and ultimate fate will be detailed in the new [[Halo]] novel, "[[Halo: The Cole Protocol]]", which will be written by [[Tobias S. Buckell]], author of "Crystal Rain" and "Ragamuffin".
*There are three Spartans on Gray Team, as shown in [[Halo: Fall of Reach]], when [[Dr. Halsey]] says that "all of you are here, save three who are engaged on fields of combat too distant to be easily recalled."
*As seen on the official cover art of "The Cole Protocol", it seems that Gray Team still wears the outdated [[MJOLNIR Mark IV]] combat armor, despite (apparently) possessing at least one [[BR55 Battle Rifle]].
*The BR55 could possibly be a MA5K similar to the ones found in [[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]].

Gray Team is the designation for a team of three Spartan-IIs of the UNSC Naval Special Warfare Group.

Background

In 2551, Grey Team was sent on a secret mission far out of UNSC space [1].

When Reach was under attack, all surviving Spartan-IIs, save Grey Team, faught for its protection. Apparently, the UNSC did not attempt to contact them due to their distance and the time it would take for the message to arrive[2].

Due to their deployment in 2551, they were not present the following year to be given the MJOLNIR mk. V, and so would rely on the 26 year old mk IV.
