==Summary==
==Summary==
Chronologically the fifth flashback level, NMPD HQ begins at 19:14, three hours after the squad's insertion into the city. [[Edward Buck|Buck]] and Romeo have made their way to the top of the [[NMPD Headquarters]] building for pickup by an [[New Mombasa Police Department|NMPD]] [[Dropship 77-Troop Carrier #Law Enforcement|Pelican]] dropship. With [[Taylor H. Miles|Dutch]] and [[Michael Crespo|Mickey]] already onboard, the Pelican is shot down by [[Type-26 Ground Support Aircraft|Banshees]] and crashes on another landing platform. Buck and Romeo must make their way across the upper floors and rooftops of the city's tower blocks to reach their squadmates at the crash site. Once there, they defend the downed Pelican from oncoming [[Covenant]] [[Type-52 Troop Carrier|Phantoms]] and Banshees. Finally, a [[Brute Chieftain]] drops from the last Phantom and severely wounds Romeo before the rest of [[Buck's squad|the squad]] manages to kill it. Lacking air transport, Buck decides to evacuate the squad through subterranean train tunnels leading to the [[Old Mombasa|old city]], and the squad heads for [[Kikowani Station]].
