Synopsis[edit]
In the video, a UNSC Marine veteran named John Tippett describes a harrowing night he and his unit spent out in a group of woods, as he walks through them several years later. Pausing to point out plasma scoring on a tree trunk caused by a Okarda'phaa-pattern plasma rifle, he then approaches a clearing where he and his unit hid throughout the night and described how they hid from the group of Covenant soldiers who were hunting them. The Interviewer turns the lights of the scene off with the Marine's permission, and he describes the sounds of the Covenant forces moving through the woods.

Transcript[edit]

Interviewer: Do you mind if we turn the lights off?
Tippett: Okay, alright.
Interviewer: What happened then?
Tippett: (whispering) For seven hours, we couldn't do anything, but be still and listen to them hunting us. All we could do was sit... and wait for the Master Chief.
