 ===UNSC Insertion===
-Three [[Pelicans|D77H-TCI Pelican Dropships]] were deployed by the [[In Amber Clad]] to board the [[Assault Carrier]] hovering near the [[New Mombasa Orbital Elevator]].  Intercepted transmission from the Covenant forces lead the UNSC to (correctly) believe that it was the [[High Prophet of Regret]] in command of the opposing force, making his capture their highest objective.  However, before they could get near the the Carrier, the formation ran across a Type 47 Scarab which shot down two of the Pelicans, one carrying [[Sergeant Major|SgtMaj]] [[Avery Johnson]] and [[John-117|SPARTAN John-117]] and the other carrying [[Gunnery Sergeant]] [[Pete Stacker]] and an [[ODST|ODST]] squad.

 Both teams suffered few casualties from their respective crashes.  The Spartan's team moved into a nearby bunker while Stacker's team moved up the beach to the [[Hotel Zanzibar]] and set up a command post, eliminating several Covenant units in the process.  Both teams then waited in their respective locations for extraction.
