The Pilgrims Pride was a civilian freighter.[1]
Background
On March 10, 2558, a distress signal broadcasted on an old maritime channel was picked up by the Template:UNSCship. The signal was found to be originating from the Pilgrims Pride near the Artesia-702 system and Chaudier trade route. When Infinity arrived in the system the following day, it found the damaged freighter leaking atomic matter with faint life signs aboard and tugged the ship into one of its deployment bays. An ambush was sprung within the bay when the freighter set itself to self-destruct and multiple UNSC aircraft exited its cargo bay. Fireteam Majestic was deployed along with Fireteams Colossus and Fenrir to repel the attack and prevent the freighter from self-destructing on the Infinity. When the attackers went into retreat, Admiral Lord Hood ordered their Broadswords to provide cover for the Pelican tugs as they pulled the freighter out the deployment bay. The Spartans survived the detonation by managing to eject the ship's core just before it exploded inside the ship. Following the skirmish, Infinity's after action teams discovered that the freighter's assault crafts were those attached to a long-lost warship, the Template:UNSCship.[1]
