HARD LANDING- OPERATION "BLIND FAITH"

FORERUNNER INSTALLATION 00 "THE ARK", OUTSIDE THE MILKY WAY

11th Marine Force Reconnaissance  - 11MFR

 ++MISSION BRIEFING++

"Just shoot me now, Sarge, and get it over with. Don't torture me with that crap first." - Corporal Locklear

(Orbital Telemetry Unavailable)

Mission Summary:

The Forward Unto Dawn made it dirtside and operations on the Forerunner Installation are ongoing.  Our current objective is to force a way through an energy shield barrier and secure a Control Room from the Covenant to prevent the Prophet of Truth from activating the other Halo rings across the galaxy.
Gamma Company were deployed in advance of the joint UNSC/Swords of Sangehlios assault against the barrier wall.

Unfortunately, our 3 Pelicans were hit by enemy AA while en-route and have been downed on a remote island complex approximately 6 clicks from the objective site. The Strike Group is advancing without our recon, and until we can find the covvie AA gun we can't risk an extraction. 

This island chain is pretty small and extremely isolated. SIGINT have no idea why the Covenant Loyalists have deployed ground forces here. There's a large number of Forerunner structures, but that seems to be the case everywhere we look. Commander Keyes wants us to investigate the island while we're stuck here and figure out what the enemy are doing.
