The United Rebel Front was dealt a series of blows in [[2530]] when the [[Spartan-IIs|SPARTAN-IIs]] sabotaged a number of their operations and destroyed their plans. This attracted the attention of Graves, who began to target the Spartans directly. In May [[2531]], he planned an [[Raid on Camp New Hope|elaborate ambush]] for them at [[Camp New Hope]] using several [[FENRIS Nuclear Warheads]] and an [[Antigravity Plate]].<ref>[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]], page 37</ref> During the course of the ambush, he underestimated the Spartans, and was killed while trying to spring the trap after an [[Asteroidea Anti-Personnel Mine]] thrown by [[SPARTAN-051]] exploded and sent a piece of shrapnel into his skull.<ref>[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]], page 38</ref> [[John-117]] described the loss of Graves as "unfortunate," as he held the secrets that [[ONI]] would have desperately wanted to get their hands on as well as knowledge of how far the Rebels had penetrated within the [[UNSC]]. | The United Rebel Front was dealt a series of blows in [[2530]] when the [[Spartan-IIs|SPARTAN-IIs]] sabotaged a number of their operations and destroyed their plans.
