==Biography==
===Early life and training===
Likely orphaned by the [[Covenant]] when they [[Glassing|glassed]] his homeworld and killed his parents, Adam was selected as a candidate for the Spartan-III program's [[SPARTAN-III Beta Company|Beta Company]], initiated around [[2539]].{{Ref/Anthology|Id=LL|Fra|Story=Lessons Learned}}{{Ref/Book|Id=Enc22P106|Enc22|Page=106}}{{Ref/Note|Id=Beta|''[[Lessons Learned]]'' establishes that Beta Company members Tom-B292 and Lucy-B091 were six years old when they started their training. Page 106 of the ''[[Halo Encyclopedia (2022 edition)]]'' establishes that Tom and Lucy were born on April 14, 2533 and January 28, 2533, respectively. This makes Beta Company's start date somewhere between April 2539 and January 2540.}} He volunteered for the SPARTAN-III program to find his revenge on the Covenant who murdered his family, and was trained by then-[[Lieutenant]] [[Kurt Ambrose]], a former [[SPARTAN-II program|SPARTAN-II]], and [[Chief Petty Officer]] [[Franklin Mendez|Mendez]] for roughly six years. Adam, along with [[Tom-B292]], [[Lucy-B091]] and [[Min-B174]], became [[Team Foxtrot]], one of the organized Spartan-III fireteams.<ref name="GoO15"> '''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 15''</ref>

===Operation: TORPEDO===
{{Main|Operation: TORPEDO}}
On July 3, 2545, Beta Company was sent to destroy a Covenant refinery on [[Pegasi Delta]].<ref name="GoO15"/> As the Spartans faced superior enemy forces, they were wiped out, but Fireteam Foxtrot managed to reach the inside of the refinery. There Adam was wounded when he was shot with [[Type-33 Guided Munitions Launcher|Needler]] rounds in the back from several [[Sangheili|Elites]]. The Elites' rounds penetrated his [[Semi-Powered Infiltration armor|SPI armor]] and punctured his spine, immobilizing him from the waist down.<ref name="GoO23">'''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx''', ''page 23''</ref> Adam remained to hold off the approaching forces and delay them so his teammates could accomplish the mission.<ref name="GoO23"/>

He was most likely killed or severely wounded by the overwhelming enemy forces, and was confirmed to be dead when the refinery was destroyed.
