==Service history== | |||
The ''Leviathan'' was a veteran vessel, having been in numerous engagements. During the [[Battle of Sigma Octanus IV]] on [[2552#July|July 17, 2552]], the ship's bow was struck by a [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] [[plasma turret|plasma torpedo]], which started fires in the ship's foredecks.<ref name="TFoR"/> After the battle, the ''Leviathan'' returned to [[Reach]], where it was determined that repairs would take at least two months.<ref name="Drop"/> Stanforth then sent a request to [[UNSC Fleet Command|FLEETCOM]], asking for the ship's crew to be transferred to the {{UNSCship|Coenwulf}} while he "made rounds" at [[HIGHCOM Facility Bravo-6]] in [[Sydney]], [[Australia]] on [[Earth]].<ref name="Drop"/> | |||
The ''Leviathan'' had presumably been repaired by [[2552#August|August 30, 2552]], the final day of the [[Fall of Reach]]. Soon after the arrival of the Covenant's [[Fleet of Particular Justice]], the ''Leviathan'' was destroyed and Stanforth was killed.<ref>'''[[Halo 3: ODST]]''', [[ONI memorial]]</ref> | |||
