'''Bloody Arrow''' is a [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] emergency code signifying the complete rout and decisive defeat of friendly forces, usually following the overrunning of friendly units and positions by hostile forces. It is effectively the complete opposite of S.O.S - it means that one should not, under any circumstances, attempt to land, reinforce, or attempt rescue.  Rather, it signifies to any reinforcements that the cause is lost and they should turn back.
