Viktoria Bradford, born Viktoria Kearsarge, was a combat medic and Sergeant in the UNSC Army Rangers and the late mother to SPARTAN-III commando Andra-D054. She spent much of her military career as a non-commissioned officer serving on Long Range Patrol and Recon teams or on on-call status, filling empty positions in depleted Ranger units. Having spent her entire youth on Sigma Octanus IV, Viktoria sought to see the rest of the galaxy for herself rather than reading or hearing about it from her museum-employed parents. She joined the UNSC Army out of high school instead of fulfilling a sports scholarship at the colonial university in Caracas. Passing through Airborne and Ranger qualifications, she achieved the rare distinction of becoming a female Ranger.

She spent twelve years as an infantrywoman, serving on the edge of colonized space fighting both the Covenant and Insurrectionists before retooling her operational specialty as a combat medic. During medical training on Sigma Octanus IV, she met an ONI officer named Neville Bradford and started a brief relationship that coincided with their continued deployments until they married. They eventually had their child, Andra, in 2545. Viktoria Bradford died fighting on the colony world of Minab in 2550 while treating her teammates' wounds. Her untimely death became the catalyst for her husband's suicide and her daughter's induction into the SPARTAN-III Program.
