'''Echo 136''' was the serial number of a [[D77-TC Pelican|Pelican]] dropship attached to the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} in [[2552]].{{Ref/Novel|TF|Chapter=3}} | |||
==Operational History== | |||
===Battle of Installation 04=== | |||
{{Main|Battle of Installation 04}} | |||
When the [[UNSC Pillar of Autumn|''Pillar of Autumm'']] crashed on [[Installation 04]] that year, the dropship's pilot, [[Lieutenant]] [[peterson|"Cookie" Peterson]], launched it as the ''Autumn'' was going down, effectively saving it from destruction. | |||
The ship then met up with other survivors at [[Alpha Base (Installation 04)|Alpha Base]] where it was assigned to ferry troops and supplies from the ''Autumn'' crash site. Its sister ship, [[Echo 206]], had the same assignment.{{Ref/Novel|TF|Chapter=4}} | |||
'' | Later, when the [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper|ODSTs]] chose to assault the ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]'', "Cookie" was assigned to pilot Echo 136 into the bays of the ship and unload troops.{{Ref/Novel|TF|Chapter=12}} It is presumed that Echo 136 was destroyed.{{Ref/Note|The events surrounding the destruction of Echo 136 were never described, so there are two possibilities to how it was destroyed; either it blew up when the ''Truth and Reconciliation'' was destroyed by [[First Lieutenant]] [[Melissa McKay]], or it was the sole dropship to survive [[Installation 04]], and was thus destroyed during the [[John-117|Master Chief]]'s attack on the ''[[Ascendant Justice]]''. It is more likely that the Pelican the Master Chief used was Echo 206 since "Cookie" was not at the controls of that ship, but it is still possible, as -136 and -206 were the only two dropships not mentioned as destroyed during ''[[Halo: The Flood]]''.}} | ||
