| | '''Lieutenant Commander Gail Purdy''' was a member of the [[UNSC Navy]] and an engineer in [[2552]]. She was assigned to the ''[[Pillar of Autumn]]'' as Chief Engineer. She was not in the same Chain of Command as the [[ODST]] officers, but she clearly outranked [[First Lieutenant Melissa McKay]]. She was middle aged and stout, with ginger-colored hair and stern and serious eyes. |
