During the [[Battle for Earth]], his squad was dispatched from the {{UNSCShip|In Amber Clad}} to relieve the ground forces. Their [[D77-TC Pelican]] was shot down over [[Old Mombasa]] by a [[Type-47A Scarab]] walker. He survived the crash, but his squad was soon attacked by a [[Covenant]] patrol. He was nearly killed by a [[Kig-Yar Sniper]], but Butkus managed to just avoid the shot. A [[Special Operations Sangheili]] then tried to sneak up on him with a [[Type-1 energy sword]]. Butkus' rifle was destroyed and he himself narrowly dodged the attack and fell to the ground, picking up a [[Type-25 plasma pistol]] and charging it. As the Sangheili took [[Fones]] hostage, Butkus was able to shoot the Sangheili and save his squadmate. His squad then met up with [[John-117]] and helped him to chase down and destroy the Scarab.{{Ref/Reuse|beach}} | |||
