==Biography==
==Biography==
Jones was one of the [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] stationed aboard the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} and was evacuated with the other personnel on board. Under the command of [[First Lieutenant]] [[Melissa McKay]], Jones joined a convoy that was ferrying supplies to [[Alpha Base (Installation 04)|Alpha Base]]. However, [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] ground forces under the command of [[Noga 'Putumee]] soon attacked the convoy using [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraiths]], [[Banshees]] and [[Type-32 Rapid Assault Vehicle|Ghosts]]. Jones was in the fourth [[M12 Force Application Vehicle|Warthog]] with [[Sergeant (UNSC)|Sergeant]] [[Corly]] when the vehicle was hit by a Plasma Mortar round from a [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraith]]. Corly was killed but Jones was thrown free.{{Ref/Reuse|TF6}} Once recovered, he discovered that his helmet (with his team mic) was missing; as a result, he could no longer call for a pickup as the supply convoy left him for dead. He retrieved his weapon and some supplies scavenged from the [[Pillar of Autumn]], and then followed his sniper training and climbed to some cover and an elevated firing position in the form of rocks.{{Ref/Reuse|TF6}}
Jones was one of the Marines stationed on the [[Pillar of Autumn]] and was aboard it when it crashed. Under the command of [[First Lieutenant]] [[Melissa McKay]], Jones joined a convoy that was ferrying supplies to [[Alpha Base]]. However, [[Covenant]] ground forces under the command of [[Noga 'Putumee]] soon attacked the convoy using [[Wraiths]], [[Banshees]], and [[Ghosts]]. Jones was in the fourth [[Warthog]] with [[Sergeant]] [[Corly]] when the vehicle was hit by a plasma mortar round from a Wraith. Corly was killed but Jones was thrown free.<ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], page 156</ref> Once recovered, he climbed atop a hill from which to ply his trade.
 
Targets soon presented themselves in the forms of two [[Elites]], one being [[Minor Domo Elite]] [[Ado 'Mortumee]] and the other the [[Zealot]] Noga 'Putumee himself. For unknown reasons Jones chose to kill the lesser ranked Elite first.<ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], page 159</ref> His first shot decapitated 'Mortumee's head, but his second at 'Putumee missed. The Covenant commander responded by calling down Banshees to locate the human and kill him.<ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], page 159</ref>
 
It is possible Jones was the Marine sniper on the level '''Halo''' on [[Halo: Combat Evolved|Combat Evolved]], when the Master Chief was looking for survivors after arrival on [[Installation 04]].


Targets soon presented themselves in the forms of two [[Sangheili]], one being [[Sangheili Minor|Minor]] [[Ado 'Mortumee]] and the other being a Field Master, [[Noga 'Putumee]]. His first shot decapitated Ado 'Mortumee, but his second, aimed at 'Putumee, missed as the Field Master back-flipped for cover. The Covenant commander responded by calling down [[Banshees]] to locate and kill the [[human]].{{Ref/Reuse|TF6}} It is unknown if Jones was killed by the Banshees' attack run, made it back to Alpha Base or was killed by the Flood, or perhaps killed when [[John-117|Spartan-117]] detonated the ''Pillar of Autumn'''s engines and destroyed Halo. As such, his fate is unknown, but he is almost certainly dead.
Jones' subsequent fate is unknown. Most likely he and his fellow ODSTs that survived the battles of [[Installation 04]] were killed in the detonation of the ''[[Pillar of Autumn]]'''s fusion drive core.
