''' | '''Warrant Officer<ref>[[Letter - Re:Polaski]]</ref> Shiela Polaski<ref>'''[[Halo: First Strike]]''', ''page 49''</ref>''' was a blonde-haired [[UNSC]] Warrant Officer assigned to the [[23rd Naval Air Squadron]] in [[2552]]. She was stationed aboard the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} as a [[D77-TC|Pelican]] pilot. When that vessel fled the [[Battle of Reach]], crash landing on [[Installation 04]], Polaski survived. | ||
She was never mentioned during [[The Battle of Installation 04]] but was among the handful of survivors who fled in a [[D77-TC|Pelican]] when the Halo was destroyed. She, [[Lieutenant (UNSC)|Lieutenant]] [[Elias Haverson]], [[Staff Sergeant]] [[Avery Johnson]], and [[Corporal (UNSC)|Corporal]] [[Locklear]] hid in the debris field until they met with [[SPARTAN-117]] and [[Cortana (AI)|Cortana]] in their [[Longsword]] fighter. Despite the harrowing experience of Installation 04, she was relatively levelheaded. At some point, [[Locklear]] developed a crush on her.<ref>'''[[Halo: First Strike]]''', ''page 282''</ref> She apparently returned his feelings. | |||
[[ | |||
She helped the Chief capture the [[Covenant]] [[Assault Carrier|flagship]] ''[[Ascendant Justice]]''. She then learned to pilot its [[DX-class Spirit Dropship|Covenant Dropships]], and when they returned to [[Reach]], she piloted the ship to the surface so they could locate the [[SPARTAN-IIs]] who had survived the fall of Reach. | |||
When they returned to the ''Ascendant Justice'' and were caught in an anomalous [[Slipspace]] bubble, Polaski volunteered to pilot the Spartans outside the vessel to conduct extra-vehicular repairs.<ref>'''[[Halo: First Strike]]''', ''page 218''</ref> She was killed along with [[SPARTAN-044]] and [[SPARTAN-008]] when a renegade charge of [[plasma]] flash-vaporized the dropships cockpit. | |||
==Trivia== | |||
*It is possible that either she or [[Haverson]] is the other sailor behind the Chief on the cover of [[Halo: First Strike]]. However, in the book she's described as wearing a flight suit, so this is improbable. | |||
*It is possible that her [[Dropship 77-Troop Carrier|Pelican]] dropship may have been [[Echo 206]]. | |||
