REPORT COMPILED BY LT. COMMANDER [[Jameson Locke|JAMESON LOCKE]]</tt>

''Cut to the stormy atmosphere of [[Reach]] as Locke narrates. The camera pans down towards an [[CAS-class assault carrier|assault carrier]] [[glassing]] the planet. Cut to several [[Covenant]] ships glassing a city on Reach.''

*'''Locke''': "'Vadamee's most recent and damaging blow to the UNSC was the [[Fall of Reach]]. ONI has still not been able to fully determine how 'Vadamee located the planet. And once again, he caught us completely by surprise when his forces arrived in orbit and on the ground."

''Cut to an overview of several planets with a figure beside each planet showing the world's population. Each planet has been glassed by Thel 'Vadamee. The camera pans past [[Estuary]], [[Mesa]], [[Greydowns]], [[Kroedis II]], [[Alluvion]], and [[Bounty]] as each world's population decreases.''

*'''Locke''': "'Vadamee is responsible for over one billion total casualties and the loss of at least [[seven]] human planets. His forces have defeated all UNSC counter-attacks at the cost of one hundred-twenty-three fleet vessels and over twenty-three thousand personnel."

''The camera pans to several destroyed UNSC cruisers and then to the helmet of a [[Marine]] with several dead Marines floating in space nearby. The camera pans backwards to the first planet displayed—Reach—as its population drops. ''

*'''Locke''': "And now with Reach lost, ONI and UNSC strategic [[AI]] report a zero percent confidence that the Navy can stop 'Vadamee through traditional means."

''The scene pans to a UNSC and Covenant fleet engagement depicted in a hologram. Then the scene switches to a group of UNSC [[Pelican]]s becoming surrounded by [[Kez'katu-pattern Phantom|Phantoms]] over a planet's mountain range. The camera pans to an overhead view, showing the Pelicans are vastly outnumbered. The Phantoms begin to fire at the Pelicans and a warning appears.''

<tt>EXPECTED UNSC SURVIVAL RATE: 0%</tt>

*'''Locke''': "In the opinion of this investigator, 'Vadamee is the most dangerous Covenant military asset on the field. It's common knowledge that the Covenant have a significant technological advantage over the UNSC, but are sometimes inflexible in their tactics. This is not the case for 'Vadamee. We cannot predict what he'll do next. But, given time, we fear that he will dismantle all remaining UNSC strongholds."

''Cut to a hologram of Thel 'Vadamee.''

*'''Locke''': "This agent's recommendation: immediate termination. If humanity wants to survive this war, we cannot do it with 'Vadamee on the field."
