The UNSC ''Wink of an Eye'' was assigned to [[UNSC Battle Group India]]. The ship took part in the [[Battle of Psi Serpentis]], better known as [[Preston Jeremiah Cole|Admiral Cole's]] [[Admiral Cole's Last Stand|Last Stand]]. The prowler was in the [[Psi Serpentis System]] for [[seven]] days prior to the battle, scouting and waiting for the rest of the fleet to arrive. At the outset of the battle the vessel then transitioned into [[slipspace]] to drop [[Slipspace guidance beacon|guidance beacons]] in order for the rest of the fleet to perform an unprecedented in-system slipspace jump.{{Ref/Reuse|evo}}
