'''UNSC ''Cascadia''''' is a {{Class|Paris|heavy frigate}}{{Ref/Reuse|HE18}} in service with the [[UNSC Navy]] following the [[Human-Covenant War]].{{Ref/Comic|Id=HE17|HE|Issue=17}} In [[2556]], ''Cascadia'' was commanded by Captain [[French (captain)|French]].{{Ref/Reuse|HE18}}

==History==
''Cascadia'' was among the first ships to respond to the [[glassing]] of [[Cleyell]] by a [[Covenant remnants|faction]] of the former [[Covenant]] in [[2556]] to support search and rescue operations. Her complement at the time included [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] from the [[Orbital Drop Shock Troopers]] and a detachment of the [[UNSC Army|Army]]'s [[412th Engineer Command]].{{Ref/Reuse|HE17}}

''Cascadia'' deployed a [[D79-TC Pelican]]—with Sergeant [[Holly Tanaka]], two ODSTs, and two other Marines aboard—tasked with [[Mission to Cleyell|rescuing]] survivors on the planet's surface. After engaging hostile [[Kig-Yar]] scavengers on Cleyell's surface, a handful of survivors was discovered by Tanaka and the ODSTs. With the Kig-Yar defeated, the civilians were successfully extracted aboard the Pelican and transported to ''Cascadia'' for safety.{{Ref/Reuse|HE18}}

==Trivia==
The ship's name references the [[Wikipedia:Cascade Range|Cascade Range]], a 1,100&nbsp;km-long mountain range in the [[Wikipedia:Pacific Northwest|Pacific Northwest]] of [[United Republic of North America]].
