"I require the most exceptional technical aptitude and diligence to duty and orders possible from all of you. Under Commander Whiting’s guidance, the Meridian Dream was one of the best prowlers in Fleet Intelligence. I look forward to continuing that tradition."
Karen Elizabeth Wakes[src]

The UNSC Meridian Dream (SRP-042) was a Oracle-class prowler of the UNSC Office of Naval Intelligence.

History[]

One of the Oracle-class prowlers constructed under the Block 300 production run, the UNSC Meridian Dream would come into operation in the 2590s, originally captained by Commander Gordon Whiting, who had distinguished himself aboard the UNSC Ether A Go Go, one of the first Oracle-class vessels to be constructed in the Block 100 series, and one of the most famous UNSC vessels that had participated in the climatic battles of Beyond Veil's Azure.

Whiting would earn his first independent command, the Meridian Dream, and would serve exemplarly with distinction, and the prowler would become recognized as one of the finest stealth vessels attached to Section One (UNSC Fleet Intelligence), UNSC Office of Naval Intelligence. Its outstanding service would make it a promising candidate for the UNSC Department of Strategic Intelligence to conduct Operation: DREAMLAND over Sanghelios, in the Urs System, deep in Covenant territory. Vice Admiral Carter, Director of Strategic Intelligence, would finally decide the Meridian Dream as the staging point.

Under General Order 48103, Wakes would rendezvous with the Meridian Dream at the perimeter of Rendezvous Point Alpha, far away from Task Force Phoenix and the UNSC Fifth Fleet Combat Command. She would come aboard and relieve Whiting of command, installing him as her executive officer (XO).

The Meridian Dream's crew emblem was that of a black stallion against a brilliant starfield, circumscribed with "MERIDIAN DREAM (SRP-042)"; the unit patch was worn on the working uniform of each crew member on the shoulder.
