'''Lieutenant Rick Hale''' was a [[UNSC]] officer and [[Pelican]] pilot in [[2552]]. He was assigned to the ''[[UNSC Pillar of Autumn]]'' with Pelican [[Charlie 217]].  

When the ''Autumn'' arrived at [[Installation 04]] and was subsequently shot down, Hale and his Pelican managed to survive the crash and escaped.<ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], page 208</ref> Unfortunately, they were captured by the [[Covenant]] forces on the [[Halo|Ringworld]]. Hale was kept alive, however, so that he could be used as a decoy for [[SpecOps Elite]] commander [[Zuka 'Zamamee]]'s plan to attack [[Alpha Base]], the human stronghold.

Hale was forced to fly to Alpha Base and radio in to get clearance to land. He put on a convincing transmission to [[Wellsley]], claiming he had wounded onboard, though his Pelican was actually overloaded with 30 SpecOps [[Elites]] in [[Active Camouflage]].<ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], page 208-210</ref> As soon as Hale had permission to land, 'Zamamee killed him with an [[Energy Garrote]] and one of the Elites took over for the landing. <ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], page 210</ref> The last thing Hale ever did was soil himself.
