Editing Grid Kilo 23

{{Era|H2}}
{{Mombasa Locations}}
'''Grid Kilo 23''' was a sector of the [[United Nations Space Command]] city [[Old Mombasa]] on the planet [[Earth]].

It consisted of a broad highway, and during the [[Battle of New Mombasa]], a [[Covenant]] [[Scarab]] was defending this grid sector, along with great numbers of other Covenant forces. A UNSC strike force of three [[Warthog]]s and three [[Pelican Dropship]]s ws dispatched over Grid Kilo 23 to attack the [[Covenant]] ship that was commanding the [[Covenant]] forces in the [[First Battle of Earth]] (where the Battle of [[New Mombasa]] had originated from).

[[Marine]] reconnaissance observing the grid sector noted the high [[Covenant]] troop concentrations, but failed to see the [[Scarab]] battle walker. As the three Pelicans neared the Scarab, unaware of its presence, the Scarab shot two of them down with its plasma [[weapons]]. There were several survivors at each crash site, though in both cases the pilots perished in the crash. One of them consisted of [[SPARTAN-117]], [[Sergeant]] [[Avery J. Johnson]], and three anonymous [[Marine]]s - two with [[Battle Rifle]]s and one with an [[SMG]]. The 2nd was carrying a squad of [[ODST]]s and crashed landed in a beach behind [[Hotel Zanzibar]]. The last one was vaporised by the [[Scarab]].
