When the ''Autumn'' was shot down over [[Installation 04]], Victor 933 escaped intact, and was used by the [[Marines]] of [[Alpha Base (Installation 04)|Alpha Base]] as transport. It appears however, that the Marines did not take any heavier UNSC weaponry.<ref>'''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''', level ''[[343 Guilty Spark (Level)|343 Guilty Spark]]''</ref> | |||
It was sent out with [[Second Squad (Halo CE)|Second Squad]] and [[Captain Keyes]] in hopes of finding a [[Covenant]] weapons cache. A supporting Pelican dropped off [[Fire Team Charlie]] later on. Twelve hours after the last transmission from the Pelican, the [[Master Chief]] dropped into the swamp aboard [[Echo 419]] and found the wreckage of Victor 933. Apparently, the Pelican had been ambushed on takeoff and crashed. Victor 933's crew then apparently escaped the wreck and the [[Flood|unknown hostiles]] that had downed the Pelican, but were most likely overrun. | It was sent out with [[Second Squad (Halo CE)|Second Squad]] and [[Captain Keyes]] in hopes of finding a [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] weapons cache.

The recording of the distress signal was a short-wave signal. Due to the nature of the emergency, the Pelican's radio may have been damaged, as otherwise it would have contacted Alpha Base for reinforcements. | The recording of the distress signal was a short-wave signal.
