| − | When war broke out with the Covenant, the Spartan-II supersoldiers were deployed against them. Among them was [[Spartan Team Sigma|Sigma]], then a team of 8 Spartans that had been secretly recruited by ONI from the 75 candidates not chosen by [[w:c:halo:Dr Catherine Halsey|Dr. Catherine Halsey]]. These Spartans would be used as personal Agents and Assassins by ONI members such as Dr. Calvin Roe, who had them abducted and trained. They would be sent on crucial missions throughout the war to recover various important assets from warzones. However, they could not afford to leave battlefields where Spartans were desperately needed to take away data, so Whiskey-04 was formed. |
||
| − | |||
| − | A go-between for Sigma and ONI, Whiskey was an 8-man team made up of talented ODST's, who would be able to quickly move in and extract critical data or VIP's from the frontines and allow the Spartans to return to combat. The initial team was commanded by Major John Ackton, a veteran of many battles. Also in the Team was then Private Richard Mack Jr, the son of Lt Colonel Richard Mack Sr, who helped train [[Spartan Team Sigma|Sigma]] alongside Roe. Mack Sr. had actually had his son placed in the team to keep him away from the frontlines. |

| − | Whiskey participated in many battles throughout the Human-Covenant War, more often than not fighting alongside the Spartans in open battle. However, Whiskey proved to be a far more formidable fighting unit than first thought, rarely losing a member. They had even saved the lives of the Spartans they were supporting from time to time. |

| − | Whiskey served throughout the Human-Covenant War, fighting in many battles and assisting Sigma on various missions. Whiskey had lost several members, all of whom were replaced with other ODST's. By 2546, only 3 members of the original team remained: Major John Ackton, First Lieutenant Steven Embry, and Sergeant Major Richand Mack. |
||
| − | However, when Whiskey was deployed into combat on a colony world under attack by Covenant Forces later that year, Major Ackton was killed in combat with a Brute. The rest of Whiskey made it out alive, but disheartened. On that planet, they had lost their great leader. |
||
| − | |||
| − | After Ackton's Death, the newly promoted Captain Embry took over whiskey and led it on many missions over the next few years. Whiskey had come to rely on the Spartans of [[Spartan Team Sigma|Sigma Team]] for backup, and saw them, like many did, as invincible. However, following a [[Battle for the Hephaestus Array|large battle]] in 2550, causing the deaths of two Spartans, Whiskey saw that their Spartan 'protectors' were, like them, all too human. |

| − | Whiskey were present at the Fall of Reach in July-August 2552. They fought in several engagements against the Covenant, the last of which being in New Alexandria. However, Captain Embry was killed by a banshee strike during the battle, leaving Sergeant Major Mack as acting commander. He ordered the team out of the City, and using a UH-144 Falcon to escape to Aszod. By the time they arrived, however, the [[w:c:halo:Pillar of Autumn|Pillar of Autumn]] had already left the planet. So, they made their way to the abandoned frigate nearby, the 'Bright New Day'. When they got there, they came under heavy fire, and were pinned down, unable to get aboard. Eventually, a team of Spartans, consisting of Kane-099, [[Spartan-025|Marco-025]] Louie-A199 and Martin-A136 arrived, and held off the covenant forces while the team boarded and powered up the ship. The Spartans managed to get aboard and the frigate as it took off. They were later joined by Jax-007 and [[Spartan-A121|Alex-A121]], who had hijacked banshees, managing to get into the Hangar bay before the ship entered orbit. |

| − | The Bright New Day narrowly escaped from Reach, evading Covenant Ships. As per the Cole Protocol, they made several random jumps to ensure that they were not being followed. After two weeks of holding their position in space, the ranking officer, MCPO Kane-099 allowed them to make the final Slipspace jump that would take them home, to Earth. |
