Pelican down[]
Walpole reporting O'Brien's death.
During the battle, he and his squad were in Stacker's D77-TC Pelican dropship when it was shot down by a Scarab on approach to an area in New Mombasa, Kenya.
After their Pelican made a rough landing outside of an abandoned beachside hotel, Walpole reported that O'Brien was killed on impact. He, along with his squad, quickly moved out to get better cover, and headed toward Hotel Zanzibar in Old Mombasa.
Moments later, a plasma grenade had landed on Walpole's helmet. Using quick reflexes, the ODST was able to remove his headgear and hurl it toward a camouflaged Special Operations Sangheili's position on higher ground.
There, Sergeant Stacker and his team saw the charging elite, only after it had held Jones as a prisoner. Butkus opened fire with an overcharged Plasma Pistol at the Sangheili, as Stacker shot the Elite in the head with his BR55 Service Rifle. Afterwards, the squad looked for a safe-spot to await the Chief.
