Battle

Early actions

On August 30th, 2552 the Fleet of Particular Justice arrived at Reach.[2][5]

Gamma Station

John, James, and Linda en route to Gamma Station.

Covenant intrusion software later detected the oversight of the UNSC Circumference and deployed forces to the Station.[6] In order to effectively tackle both problems, John-117 split his SPARTAN-IIs into two groups. Three SPARTAN-IIs (himself, Linda-058, and James-005) were to be deployed to the station to scrub the data on the Circumference.[6]

When the three SPARTANs arrived at the space station, the docking bay doors were sealed and the station was not spinning.[7]

Escape

The Pillar of Autumn enters into slipspace with elements of the Fleet of Particular Justice pursuing.[8]

Later actions

At some point after the mission to Gamma Station, a Paris-class heavy frigate and an SDV-class heavy corvette battled each other near the station in orbit of Reach.[9]
