As [[Sarah Palmer|Spartan Palmer]] led the charge on [[Draetheus V]], [[Edward Davis|Spartan Davis]] continued to face considerable enemy threat on the [[X50|moon]]. In a stroke of luck, the {{UNSCShip|Eminent Domain}} was able to outmaneuver [[Covenant remnant|Covenant]] forces in orbit over the moon and offer some support by deploying marines to the southern Mirror Flats. | |||
The [[3rd Helljumper Platoon]] was the first to land on Draetheus V's moon. Their drop zone was less than a mile from [[Research Facility Alpha|Alpha facility]] but the landing scattered them across the razor sharp rock face of the mountain range called [[Glacial Perch]]. They were quickly surrounded by Covenant infantry and taking heavy losses. Spartan Davis, having held out against a constant stream of [[Unggoy]] and [[Sangheili]] for a full day, quickly set out to clear the landing zone for the second wave of drop pods. | |||
