White Team

White Team is a constant unit of SPARTAN-IIs under the combine operational command of UNSC Naval Special Warfare Command and the Office of Naval Intelligence under the supervision of Lieutenant Audie Grissom from ONI and Captain Derick Mercer of the UNSC Navy. It was lead by Dalton-070 during the entire duration of the Human-Covenant War with Emika-071 taking command for several years in the Post-War prior to the recovery of Dalton in 2555.
== History ==
=== Founding ===
White Team was formed in 2525 shortly after Operation: KING FALL by ONI Lieutenant Audie Grissom when given special permission to form a specialized SPARTAN Fireteam. Having personally spoken to Dr. Halsey, who gave her own insight on a select amount of Spartans, seven would be chosen. Shortly after the formation of White Team the group of Spartans would find themselves assigned to the UNSC Until The End just prior to being deployed upon Harvest. 
=== Harvest Campaign ===
Having integrated onto the UNSC Until The End they were quickly deployed to Harvest to conduct operations behind Covenant lines. Lieutenant Grissom tasked them with intel gathering from Covenant systems but with their main task would be to delay future assaults. Due to the lack of knowledge of the Covenant langue during these years their secondary task bore little fruit but from what little that could be extracted it help begin the UNSC on ONI's understanding of Covenant structure.
In 2530 on Harvest White Team would come to the aid of a marine detachment from a Covenant assault. Making a aerial insertion White Team would help decimate the opposition and managed to save the surviving members of the marine detachment with Dalton and Emika recognizing the then acting leader Dimus Ušek, but not revealing anything to him before the detachment was extracted and White Team departed.
=== Battle of Vodin ===
White Team would later be deployed to the sudden attack on Vodin, but their primary task was to assist in extracting ONI assets and research data, much to the team and Captain Mercer's disagreement. While upon Vodin they assisted Randall-037 in the defense of a skyhook, but were separated during the battle. As the skyhook began to break apart they were forced to retreat, and ultimately have to list Randall MIA as they were unable to find him. While able to push the Covenant off of Vodin they quickly departed the planet to participate in Operation: LEVER on Jericho VII.
== Known Members ==
White Team have been made up of of a total of nine SPARTAN-IIs in the span from its official conception in 2525 to 2555. The team rooster was comprised of Dalton-070 as team leader with Emika-071 as its deputy. Sagan-040 comprised as the main scout of the team, while both Harris-032 and Asa-024 were for heavy ordnance. Jeremy-061 and Kyle-060 brought more tech based knowledge to the team. In 2548 Grissom would dissolve his special Spartan-II Headhunters Theta Team and have Akeno-036 and Matthew-121 integrated into the team due to their familiarity with them earlier in the SPARTAN-II program.
