"White and Blue"@en . "Torrent squad is a unit of Spartan IVs assigned to ONI. It consisted of ten Spartan IVs veterans. Though the core was based around Fire team Juno lead by Spartan AJ A312, a former Spartan III commando from Alpha company. ONI increased the squad's numbers with members from Spartan III Gamma company who participated in Operation SOMME, as well as Spartan IVs from other fire teams who proved their skills in war-games and during the Second campaign of Requiem. The squad was built to act as ONI's elite shock troops, their role, carry out the missions no one else could get done. As such the squad was equipped with some of the most high tech suits of MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2). The squad was also outfitted with some new prototype weapons and armor abilities for field use. With the UNSC and ONI attempting to keep good relations with the Elites, Torrent Squad was often deployed alongside Elite ground forces to assist them in carrying out operations. This allowed the Spartans to become extremely efficient in Elite ground assault tactics and special operation handling. They were also given special access to elite weaponry and how to effectively use them. In 2560 the team was deployed to Sangheli space for their first operation. Stationed aboard the UNSC Resolute, a Autumn Class Heavy Cruiser and the UNSC Frigate Normandy."@en . "Spartan IV"@en . "Special Operations"@en . "2560"^^ . . "Spartan Branch"@en . . .
