'''UNSC ''Clearidas''''' was a [[UNSC destroyer]] during the [[Human-Covenant War]].<ref>'''[[Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe]]''', "[[Dirt]]", ''page 127''</ref>

==Service history==
During the [[Battle of Hat Yai]] the ''Clearidas'' ducked and weaved around [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] forces in low orbit, bouncing off the atmosphere as it dropped its cargo of 100 [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper|ODST]]-filled [[Single Occupant Exoatmospheric Insertion Vehicle|SOEIV]]'s. After the battle it retrieved the surviving marines and retreated to slipspace.

Sometime after [[2535]] and the establishment of the [[United Nations Space Command Emergency Priority Order 098831A-1|Cole Protocol]], the ''Clearidas'' was ambushed by a [[Covenant cruiser]]. Someone high up on the chain of command gave the command to flash unfreeze the ship's ODSTs in case the ship got boarded. However flash unfreezing was incredibly risky, and a third of the ODSTs died. Their lives were wasted, as the ''Clearidas'' managed to escape.

==Known personnel==
[[Gage Yevgenny]] was stationed on the ''Clearidas'' from the Battle of Hat Yai until the [[Battle of Skopje]] when he ran into [[Felicia Sanderson]], who had him transferred to the {{UNSCShip|Chares}}.

==Trivia==
*The ship is most likely named after [[wikipedia:Battle of Amphipolis|Clearidas]], a Spartan General during the Peloponnesian War, who took over for Brasidas (who has a namesake [[UNSC Brasidas|UNSC Destroyer]]) after he was killed at the Battle of Amphipolis in 422 BCE.
