Red Team (Earth-5875)

"Always got to show off, eh, Alice? Who gets to take this one? I figured you two have had enough fun."

- - Douglas-042, Alice-130, and Jerome-092

Red Team is one of the many formations of the SPARTAN-II Program, under the UNSC Naval Special Warfare Command. Many incarnations of the team have existed, although the current only consists of Jerome-092,Alice-130, and Douglas-042. Red Team participated in many battles of the First Contact War, such as the First Battle of Arcadia, the Battle of Jericho VII, the Battle of Sigma Octanus IV, and the Fall of Reach.

Training
During Red Team's training program in the SPARTAN-II Program, Red Team competed against Black Team, led by Margaret-053. Years later, after Red Team discovered Margaret was having a romantic relationship with Otto-031, they tracked both of them down to teach them a lesson, where they claimed they were not respecting training. While resisting Red Team, Margaret lost her left eye, leading Black Team to fight back Red Team in return, and making them suffer through ten days in the brig.

In July 2523, Red Team consisted of John-117, Kelly-087, Samuel-034, and Fhajad-084, where they trained alongside Blue Team, which consisted of Linda-058 and Fred-104. The two formations were deployed together on a mission at Longhorn Valley, on Reach, in a mission of capture the flag, which was hidden through the valley. Blue Team provided SRS99C-S2 AM sniper rifle support, while Red Team infiltrated a UNSC Marine Corps base. The SPARTANs were able to create a diversion beneath their barracks, killing many Marines. They then neutralized the guards and Red Team breached the base. The Marines then sent a D77-TC Pelican in order to trick the SPARTANs, but they outsmarted the Marines, where John-117 sent an all-clear signal to both teams.
