After Regret's retreat and the [[Slipstream Space|Slipspace]] event, the Covenant still had a heavy presence in the park, having multiple [[Type-25 Assault Gun Carriage|Wraiths]] and other vehicles stationed in there, especially around their landing zone. The [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marine]] forces, under the command of an [[Unnamed UNSC Colonel|unnamed Colonel]], had various [[platoon]]s stationed in all sections of the park; Most of them overpowered and outnumbered by Covenant infantry and armor. Several [[F-99 Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicle|F-99 combat drones]] also partook in the battle, patrolling the skies. | After Regret's retreat and the [[Slipstream Space|Slipspace]] event, the Covenant still had a heavy presence in the park, having multiple [[Type-25 Assault Gun Carriage|Wraiths]] and other vehicles stationed in there, especially around their landing zone.

The turning point of the battle for the reserve was the arrival of an [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper|ODST]], [[Taylor H. Miles|Taylor "Dutch" Miles]]. Having landed on the beach on the southwest end of the park, he moved out 30 minutes after the Slipspace event and soon regrouped with Marines pinned down by Covenant forces. With the assistance of the ODST, the Covenant were defeated and the Marines regrouped and moved out. Leading a [[M12 Light Reconnaissance Vehicle|Warthog]] charge, Dutch made his way through the park to Section B, where the [[Second Platoon (Halo 3: ODST)|Second Platoon]] was pinned down by Covenant armor, most of them taking cover in the reserve's visitor center. With the arrival of Dutch, the Covenant were defeated and the Marines could continue to push forward towards the Colonel's location in Section C, just beside the Covenant landing zone. | The turning point of the battle for the reserve was the arrival of an [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper|ODST]], [[Taylor H.

However, before the Marines could make it to the Colonel's position, the Orbital Elevator collapsed and debris rained upon the area. The Colonel was killed by a piece of falling debris, his last orders for the Marines being to clear the area. Upon arrival to the Covenant landing zone, Dutch discovered several Marines taking cover behind a ridge, with many wounded or dead among them, including the Colonel. The [[Jiralhanae Chieftain]] in command of the Covenant in the area had moved out to the last section of the park beyond the landing zone, where the Covenant made their final stand against the UNSC, who soon crushed the remaining Covenant and moved out of the reserve towards their new [[Rally Point|rally point]] at the entrance to the [[ONI Alpha Site]] in [[Kizingo]].<ref name="lev"/> | However, before the Marines could make it to the Colonel's position, the Orbital Elevator collapsed and debris rained upon the area.
