During the battle, their squad and two others were sent on a recon patrol to set up motion sensors at [[Sigma Octanus IV/Grid 13 x 24|Grid 13 x 24]], but were ambushed by the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]]. All three squads were destroyed by a [[Mgalekgolo|Hunter]]'s [[assault cannon]], except for Harland's fire team, who escaped on their [[M12 Light Reconnaissance Vehicle|Warthog]]. Cochran took a [[Type-33 Guided Munitions Launcher|Needler]] round to his stomach, and Walker was frozen up with fear and shock. The marines quickly filled Cochran with [[biofoam]], as the Needler round had exploded in him. They drove back to [[Firebase Bravo]], but found it, and all of the marines present at the time, destroyed. | During the battle, their squad and two others were sent on a recon patrol to set up motion sensors at [[Sigma Octanus IV/Grid 13 x 24|Grid 13 x 24]], but were ambushed by the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]].

They witnessed the bond brother of the Hunter they had seen earlier kill a group of marines hiding in a river bank, and promptly fled. They made their way to Alpha Base, and were attacked by a pair of [[Type-26 Ground Support Aircraft|Banshees]]. Walker refused to shoot the Banshees with his Jackhammer launcher, but Cochran, despite his serious injuries, shot both down. Upon arriving at [[Alpha Headquarters|Alpha Base]], they found it too was decimated by the Covenant, with only fourteen survivors. Corporal Harland assumed command and called in for evacuation, and received three squads of [[SPARTAN-II Program|SPARTAN-IIs]]. | They witnessed the bond brother of the Hunter they had seen earlier kill a group of marines hiding in a river bank, and promptly fled.

As the Spartans assumed command of the situation, the squad was left behind to guard the base and tend to their wounded. They were later seen boarding the Pelican to safety. | As the Spartans assumed command of the situation, the squad was left behind to guard the base and tend to their wounded.
