'''Technical Petty Officer First Class Mary Murphy''' was a [[UNSC]] technician and crew member of the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} in [[2552]]. She was present when that vessel crashed on [[Installation 04]] and at the subsequent [[Battle of Installation 04]].

During [[The Battle of Installation 04]], she worked with [[Petty Officer Third Class]] [[Cho]] and Petty Officer Third Class [[Pauley]] at [[Alpha Base (Installation 04)|Alpha Base]]. Murphy led the Naval Team. All three survived the attacks and subsequent failed landing on the ''Pillar of Autumn''. She monitored air traffic and told [[AI]] [[Wellsley]] when there was a problem. She let [[D77-TC|Pelicans]] and other airships land if they needed to resupply or drop off troops, or just stop flying for the day.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Flood]]''', page 208</ref> She was killed when [[Prisoner of War|POW]] [[Lieutenant (UNSC)|Lieutenant]] [[Rick Hale]] landed his Pelican, [[Charlie 217]], in the base, dropping off thirty SpecOps [[Elite]]s who were led by Commando [[Zuka 'Zamamee]]. Once the base commanders knew what was happening, the [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] banded together and killed most of the Elites. 'Zamamee and a few other survivors fled underground, killing many of the technicians, including Murphy, Cho, and Pauley.

Murphy took the initiative to take the safeties off of the base's 50mm defensive turrets to stop the [[DX-class Spirit Dropship|Covenant Dropships]] that were soon going to arrive with Covenant reinforcements. Luckily for the base, she did this before she was killed.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Flood]]''', page 214</ref> The last thing Murphy heard before dying was 'Zamamee's laugh.

Mary's work helped Wellsley stop part of the [[Covenant]] infiltration force, destroying one of the dropships and killing dozens of enemy passengers.
