[Naked Crook]

Commander Burke looked at the communication header. Burke was able to identify that the soldier he was speaking to weas Commander Zephyr Bovela. Burke: Commander Bovela. It is good to hear that you are still kickin' down there. If I recall correctly, you were sent down to UNSC Airfield Mayweather to establish our foothold. I can imagine that you have done an excellent job, provided your past military experience. Burke paused. Burke: Commander...as you may, or may not know...UNSC Airfield Mayweather has a very unique status on San Angeles. In case you were not aware...that airbase has a direct connection to White Water's UNSC Regional HQ Bravo, in the form of an underground emergency roadway....something which is typically reserved for high-profile personnel. Warthogs are typically used to transport personnel back and forth as needed. I am curious Commander...but have you seen any survivors, or even any Warthogs, coming to UNSC Airfield Mayweather from this evac tunnel? If you have...it would suggest that survivors are making it out of White Water City...something that can be a boost to morale. Burke paused. Burke: If there are survivors...that would be the best news we have received all day.
