When a [[UNSC Navy]] [[battle group]] attempted to deploy [[Pelican]] [[dropship]]s and [[Owl]] insertion craft to aid the battalion, Casille considered it to be a violation of Gao's sovereignty and ordered for Melgar to fire at will. As the [[Minister (title)|minister]] gave the order to other patrol corvettes within the fleet, Melgar ordered Gunnery Lieutenant [[Cardone]] to fire the corvette's entire complement of [[missile]]s to destroy the incoming aircraft, despite the lieutenant's reluctance. As the salvo of missiles destroyed several of the aircraft, the UNSC craft reluctantly retreated back to their battle group, unwilling to engage the patrol corvettes in fear of risking a civil war on Gao.<ref name="ll269"/> | ||
