Having secured the Cartographer, the majority of the remaining UNSC and Sangheili converged on a communications citadel that housed the remaining Covenant Loyalist forces and the [[High Prophet of Truth]]. The initial landing forces were transported to the various locations by five [[Pelican]]s and two [[Phantom]]s. The group split up and two Pelicans, holding [[Johnson]] and many [[UNSC Marine|Marines]] to the Third Tower. The two Phantoms landed at the Second Tower, dropping Thel 'Vadam and several Elites straight into the fighting. Two of the remaining Pelicans, including [[Kilo 023]], headed towards the First Tower, where they met heavy fire, resulting in one of the Pelicans being shot down. Kilo 023 was carrying Spartan-117 and three ODSTs. | Having secured the Cartographer, the majority of the remaining UNSC and Sangheili converged on a communications citadel that housed the remaining Covenant Loyalist forces and the [[Prophet of Truth|High Prophet of Truth]].
