'''A Company''' is a [[UNSC Marine Corps]] [[company]]. It was among the first UNSC forces to respond to the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]]'s [[Battle of Mombasa|invasion]] of [[Mombasa]], [[Kenya]] during the [[Battle of Earth]].<ref name="metropolis">'''[[Halo 2]]''', campaign level, ''[[Metropolis]]''</ref>

==History==
A Company arrived on scene during the [[Battle of Earth]] in [[Mombasa]], [[Kenya]] on [[Earth]], and [[Battle of Mombasa|went on to fight]] in the city streets of [[New Mombasa]]. They took heavy casualties immediately after landing; the lieutenant commanding an element of the unit's forces in the [[New Mombasa industrial zone]] was killed upon arrival. Soon after, [[Staff Sergeant]] [[Banks]] was placed in charge of a command post in an [[Mtangulizi Kampuni]] building which soon became pinned down by heavy Covenant armor.<ref name="metropolis"/>

Elements of A Company assisted [[SPARTAN-II Program|Spartan]] [[John-117]] in the destruction of a [[Type-47 Ultra Heavy Assault Platform|Scarab]] that was moving through the city. Surviving members of this unit then traveled to [[Installation 05]] along with John-117 aboard the {{UNSCShip|In Amber Clad}}. It is likely all were killed in either the [[Battle of the Quarantine Zone]] or, although unlikely, the [[Battle of High Charity]]. It is also possible that they were attacked by the [[Flood]] as some of the [[Flood combat form|combat forms]] spilled out on the ''In Amber Clad''.

==Personnel==
Known members of this unit include:
*[[Staff Sergeant]] [[Banks]]
*[[Corporal]] [[Perez]]
*[[Private]] [[McKenzie]]

==Trivia==
It is likely that A Company was part of [[E2-BAG/1/7]], a battalion that participated in the defense of Mombasa; earlier in the battle, John-117 encountered and fought alongside members of the battalion's Kilo Company.

+==Trivia==
-*An early depiction of A Company made an appearance in the [[Halo 2 E3 demo|''Halo 2'' E3 demo]] under the designation "405th", which operated in [[Diego Garcia]]. In the demo, John-117 was greeted by a Corporal named Perez at the Marine command post, and was led to a Sergeant named Banks, who had taken over command after the Lieutenant was incapacitated.
+It is likely that A Company was part of [[E2-BAG/1/7]], a battalion that participated in the defense of Mombasa; earlier in the battle, John-117 encountered and fought alongside members of the battalion's Kilo Company.
-*In ''[[Palace Hotel]]'', the appearance of A Company was replaced by [[Kilo Company]]. ''Palace Hotel'' is of debatable canonicity because it greatly contradicts the events, characters, and locations shown in the ''Halo 2'' level ''[[Metropolis]]'', on which the story is based.
-*It is possible that A Company was part of [[E2-BAG/1/7]], a battalion identified in ''Palace Hotel''; earlier in the battle, John-117 encountered and fought alongside members of the battalion's Kilo Company.
