Samuel was considered to be the strongest of the first class of SPARTAN-II's. According to John-117, he had the best eyes and ears of all of his subordinates <ref>'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', page 48</ref>. He is also said to be one head taller than John-117, making him one of the larger Spartans, and was the fastest to recover from the [[SPARTAN-II Augmentation Procedures|augmentation]]. He had a tan complexion with sandy blond hair and green eyes <ref>'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', page 78</ref>. Sam did not display the same great leadership qualities as John or [[Frederic-104|Frederic]] did, but he did act as John's second in command throughout the duration of his Naval career. At times Sam also displayed some ruthlessness, such as detonating a [[C-12 Shaped Charge]] on a Rebel base, despite the obvious civilian casualties that would be involved. Also, he would make joking remarks such as saying he was in love with his armor. He was also slightly different than the others, having a bigger sense of humor and was not as much a stoic as the others.

As they entered and explored the frigate, Sam was struck in the side by an overcharged bolt from a [[Plasma Pistol]] wielded by a [[Kig-yar]] soldier while trying to protect John and his other close freind Derrick 119 from harm. The shot burned a sizable hole in Sam's unshielded armor. The Spartans managed to make it to the engine room of the ship and planted several [[ANVIL-II ASM]] missiles on the fusion generator; however, their only means of escape was an EVA, but this was impossible for Sam since the vacuum seal in his armor was compromised. Rather than die in the vacuum of space, Sam volunteered to hold off the [[Covenant]] forces and allow the missiles to explode, destroying the entire ship. John later marked Sam as MIA because "Spartans never die"; it is believed that the morale of the public and servicemen alike would fall dramatically if they found out the legendary super-soldiers could actually be killed. <ref>'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', pages 127-130</ref>
