User:UNSC Trooper/Operation: COMPLETE SILENCE

April 17, 2552
On the 17th of April, 2552, ONI Monitoring cruisers above the orbit of Mars detected a strong insurgent presence in the Amazonia Planitia on the surface of Mars. Graphics indicated that a rebel training base in the area of the Amazonia Planitia had recruited quite a number of volunteers into organizing a resistance against the UNSC presence on Mars. Mars Navigation Command immediately reported the discovery to Mars HIGHCOM which later assembled the only counter-terror task unit known to the UNSC Special Operations Command, "Team Yankee" of the 84th Marine Regiment.

April 19, 2552
Team Yankee consisting of 15 marines and Corporal Benjamin M. Nunez infiltrated the Amazonia Bildungs Complex where the insurgents were hiding out. The fire team split into two assault and recon squads while entering the facility, using flashbang grenades to temporarily incapacitate and neutralize the rebels. A total number of 32 insurgents were killed in the operation and several others arrested.

Aftermath
The rebels were identified as being volunteers of an old rebellious belief system on Mars named the "Frieden-Maurer" movement.
