 ++MISSION BRIEFING++

"Look at this place. Used to be the crown jewel... not anymore." - Jun-A266

(No map due to the nature of the terrain - it doesn't add anything)

Mission Summary:

The Orbital Defence Network fell two days ago. Covenant forces have been pushing across Reach's Viery Territory ever since; and 4 hours ago landed in New Alexandria. Evacuation efforts have been underway and fighting is fierce in the city centre. Army units are fighting to evacuate as many civilians as possible; but large numbers of Covenant ground troops is making this difficult. 
Naval Special Warfare Team NOBLE are in the AO and have been conducting operations to facilitate the evacuations. Thanks to their efforts, we managed to retake control of the Spaceport and get 5 civilian transports off planet. However, the location was lost again an hour ago. Current HQ is the ONI Site. The situation is dire, there are reports that the Covenant are deploying communication jammers to isolate New Alexandria from HIGHCOM. NOBLE are tasked to rectify this situation.
Before comms became unreliable, Vice Admiral Whitcomb managed to get a message out stating he was on the ground in New Alexandria and required an evac. Whitcomb is a vital asset to the UNSC and orders were drawn up for KILO-6 to find and evacuate him.

KILO-6 has been formed from remnants of 2 ODST Companies, supplemented by two combat effective personnel from Naval Special Warfare Team SWORD.
You will be deployed via Falcon to the outskirts of the city centre. Locate the Vice Admiral and evacuate him.
