UNSC Meriwether Lewis is a Stalwart-class light frigate in service with the UNSC Navy.[1][note 1]
Jacob Keyes served aboard this vessel prior to 2531, and defended the vessel against an overwhelming Covenant attack force with only a small security force. Keyes charged the boarders with only an M6 magnum,[2] sustaining several injuries in the process including plasma burns on his thigh and hand.[3] For his bravery on the vessel, Keyes received a Medal of Honor.[4]
Meriwether Lewis remained in service in the wake of the Human-Covenant War. At some point before October 2558, the Meriwether Lewis had a Spartan contingent, with Spartan Edward Buck acting as Spartan Commander before being transferred to UNSC Infinity and Fireteam Osiris.[5]
Trivia
- Meriwether Lewis is named after the famous explorer of the same name who, along with William Clark, mapped out most of the Western United States in the early 1800s. The ship is mistakenly referred to as "Merriweather Lewis" in the Halo 5: Guardians Limited Edition.
- In the Halo: Combat Evolved manual, this ship was classified as a colony ship. For more information see List of inconsistencies in the Halo series.
