Bravo 001

Bravo 1 was a UNSC Pelican aboard the UNSC Pillar of Autumn in August 2552. Bravo 1 was flown by Flight Officer Mitchell. It was assigned to ferry the Spartans down to the surface of Reach during the Battle of Reach and was stripped down to accommodate them all. Escorted by a group of Longswords led by Knife 26, Bravo 1 came under attack by two formations of Seraph fighters. Its cockpit decompressed and then exploded resulting its destruction, killing Mitchell, but the Spartan Joshua managed to slow the ship enough to jump out of it, though with heavy casualties, before Bravo 1 crashed into a mountain on Reach and was destroyed.
