| {{Main|Battle of Installation 04}}
| | When the ''Autumn'' arrived at [[Installation 04]] and was shot down, Cullen went with Foehammer and [[Lieutenant (UNSC)|Lieutenant]] [[Frye]] to the Pelican and launched it as the ship was going down, effectively saving it from destruction. Cullen likely flew with Foehammer on all the missions during [[The Battle of Installation 04]] and was killed when the dropship was shot down by [[Banshee]]s while Foehammer attempted to extract from the due-to-detonate ''Pillar of Autumn'' <ref>''[[Halo: The Flood]]'', pages 338-339</ref>. |
| ''[[Echo 419]]'' and its crew, including [[pilot]]s [[Carol Rawley]] and [[Frye]] alongside Cullen, were stationed on the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} in [[2552#August|August 2552]], when the ship escaped the [[Fall of Reach]] and exited [[slipspace]] over [[Installation 04]] on September 19. Upon entering the [[Soell]] system, [[Covenant]] forces began [[Battle over Installation 04|engaging]] the ''Autumn'' in space, ultimately deploying [[Naval boarding|boarding]] parties in an attempt to take over the cruiser. During the fighting on the ship, [[Captain (NAVCOM)|Captain]] [[Jacob Keyes]] initiated a general evacuation, prompting the ship's Pelican crews - including that of ''Echo 419'' - to try and launch their craft in the hopes they may become useful in the ensuing conflict.{{Ref/Reuse|TF1}} | |

| Ultimately, all three air crew for ''Echo 419'' were able to successfully reach the Pelican as the ''Autumn'' began to enter Installation 04's atmosphere, with Cullen being the last to enter the craft. ''Echo 419'' was ultimately able to successfully escape the cruiser before it crash-landed on the ring, though Cullen's fate is unknown.{{Ref/Reuse|TF1}} Cullen would later continue to serve during the September 20 [[Outbreak at the Containment Facility|outbreak]] of the [[Flood]] at the [[Flood containment facility]], serving to work ''Echo 419''{{'}}s comms suite to put Captain Rawley in contact with [[John-117]].{{Ref/Novel|HTF|Chapter=9}}

|
| Cullen's fate following September 20 is unknown, though they were almost certainly killed by the time of ''Echo 419''{{'}}s (and Installation 04's) destruction on September 22, 2552.
