Cullen was the crew chief for [[D77-TC Pelican|Pelican]] [[Echo 419]] under [[Carol Rawley|Capt. Carol "Foehammer" Rawley]] and [[Frye|Lt. Frye]] <ref>'''[[Halo: The Flood]]''', ''page 38''</ref>.

===Battle of Installation 04===
When the ''Pillar of Autumn'' arrived at [[Installation 04]], the crew of Echo 419 immediately headed for their ''Pelican'' as their ship was hurling towards the surface of the ring world.
{{Main|Battle of Installation 04}}
''[[Echo 419]]'' and its crew, including [[pilot]]s [[Carol Rawley]] and [[Frye]] alongside Cullen, were stationed on the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} in [[2552#August|August 2552]], when the ship escaped the [[Fall of Reach]] and exited [[slipspace]] over [[Installation 04]] on September 19. Upon entering the [[Soell]] system, [[Covenant]] forces began [[Battle over Installation 04|engaging]] the ''Autumn'' in space, ultimately deploying [[Naval boarding|boarding]] parties in an attempt to take over the cruiser. During the fighting on the ship, [[Captain (NAVCOM)|Captain]] [[Jacob Keyes]] initiated a general evacuation, prompting the ship's Pelican crews - including that of ''Echo 419'' - to try and launch their craft in the hopes they may become useful in the ensuing conflict.{{Ref/Reuse|TF1}}
 
Ultimately, all three air crew for ''Echo 419'' were able to successfully reach the Pelican as the ''Autumn'' began to enter Installation 04's atmosphere, with Cullen being the last to enter the craft. ''Echo 419'' was ultimately able to successfully escape the cruiser before it crash-landed on the ring, though Cullen's fate is unknown.{{Ref/Reuse|TF1}} Cullen would later continue to serve during the September 20 [[Outbreak at the Containment Facility|outbreak]] of the [[Flood]] at the [[Flood containment facility]], serving to work ''Echo 419''{{'}}s comms suite to put Captain Rawley in contact with [[John-117]].{{Ref/Novel|HTF|Chapter=9}}
 
Cullen's fate following September 20 is unknown, though they were almost certainly killed by the time of ''Echo 419''{{'}}s (and Installation 04's) destruction on September 22, 2552.


Cullen likely flew with Foehammer on all the missions during [[Battle of Installation 04|The Battle of Installation 04]], and if so, was likely killed when the dropship was shot down by a flight of [[Type-26 Ground Support Aircraft|Banshees]] while they attempted to extract [[Master Chief Petty Officer]] [[John-117]] from the due-to-detonate ''Pillar of Autumn''. Although it is possible he could have survived the actual crash, which was not witnessed, he would certainly have been killed when the ''Autumn'' exploded a few minutes later, taking the entire Halo ring with it.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Flood]]''', ''pages 338-339''</ref>
