Almost immediately upon exiting slipspace, the ''Autumn'' came under attack from [[Fleet of Particular Justice|pursuing]] [[Covenant]] ships, and was soon boarded. The ship's Marine complement, Dubbo included, immediately set to work repelling the boarders. While engaging Covenant forces in a corridor nearby the bridge, Dubbo met an unarmed [[John-117]] heading for the bridge. Dubbo escorted the Chief the rest of the way, remarking that [[Jacob Keyes|the Captain]] wanted him there as soon as possible.<ref>'''Halo: Combat Evolved''', campaign level ''[[The Pillar of Autumn (level)|The Pillar of Autumn]]''</ref> He survived the destruction of the ''Autumn'', along with most of the other Marines, via an escape pod. Dubbo met the [[John-117|Master Chief]] on [[Installation 04|Halo]] again when his squad was under attack by Covenant forces. The Chief defended his squad until the [[D77-TC Pelican|Pelican]] [[Echo 419]] came to evacuate the Marines.<ref>'''Halo: Combat Evolved''', campaign level ''[[Halo (Halo: Combat Evolved level)|Halo]]''</ref>

Dubbo later took part in a mission to rescue Captain Keyes, who had been captured by the Covenant, from the {{Pattern|Ket|battlecruiser}} ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]''. During their escape, he can be heard in the Covenant dropship, complimenting Keyes when he successfully rammed two [[Mgalekgolo|Hunters]] with their stolen [[Dextro Xur-pattern Spirit|Spirit]].<ref>'''Halo: Combat Evolved''', campaign level ''[[The Truth and Reconciliation]]''</ref>

Dubbo was ultimately one of the few survivors of the ring's destruction, however, the method of his survival is unknown, as he was not on-board John-117's [[GA-TL1 Longsword|Longsword]] or [[Shiela Polaski]]'s [[D77-TC Pelican|Pelican]], the only two known UNSC craft to escape.

By October 20, Dubbo was present on Earth's [[Cairo Station (station)|Cairo Station]].<ref>'''Halo 2''', campaign level ''[[Cairo Station]]''</ref> Early in the [[Battle of Earth]], Dubbo aided [[Master Chief Petty Officer]] [[John-117]] in defending the station from Covenant boarding parties, at one point observing that the nearby [[orbital defense platform]] ''[[Malta Station]]'' had almost instantly repulsed it's attackers. Dubbo's observation was immediately followed up by the station's instant destruction by a large explosion from within. After driving off another wave of attackers, the prior scene repeated itself as [[Athens Station]] befell the same fate. Dubbo continued to defend the hangar bays as John-117 was tasked with locating a [[Covenant Bomb]] aboard the Cairo.

Arriving at Installation 05 on board the UNSC ''In Amber Clad'' on November 2, Dubbo was among the first wave of ODSTs dropped onto Installation 05 as part of the [[7th Shock Troops Battalion|7th ODST Battalion]].

As part of the crew in the UNSC ''Forward Unto Dawn'', Dubbo traveled through the Portal to [[Installation 00|The Ark]] and participated in the [[Battle of Installation 00]]. His Pelican was shot down by Covenant anti-air in a desert, and Dubbo lead the survivors to hide in the rocks above the crash site before Covenant forces arrived. After some time John-117 and a Squad of ODSTs arrived, and after retaking the crash site, Dubbo and the other Marines helped clear a [[landing zone]] for the UNSC ''Forward Unto Dawn''. Dubbo later assisted John-117, [[Thel Vadam]] and 343 Guilty Spark in accessing Installation 00's [[Cartographer]], witnessing John-117's duel with [[Jiralhanae]] Chieftain [[Cethegus]], and aiding the Spartan in neutralizing an entire Brute Pack.<ref>'''Halo 3''', campaign level ''[[The Ark (level)|The Ark]]''</ref> Dubbo evacuated the Ark with the rest of the surviving Marines and Sangheili aboard the ''[[Shadow of Intent]]''.

===Post-war===
Dubbo survived the war successfully, and was later interviewed about his experiences fighting alongside John-117. In the interview, Dubbo over-exaggerated his experiences, claiming that he and the Spartan were "best mates" and in regular contact. When pressed further, he admitted to knowing the origins of the [[SPARTAN-II program]], and thus considering him a part of his found-family in the Marine Corps. This recording was later reviewed by [[Parisa]] in [[2559]].{{Ref/Reuse|HMA4}}

These Marines appear in completely disparate locations across the city in a very small timeframe, and so it is unlikely that they are the same person. Furthermore, none of these Marines have been identified as Dubbo himself by any official source, and in fact they cannot be, by virtue of the fact that at this time, Dubbo was on-board the UNSC ''In Amber Clad'' and en-route to Installation 05. Nevertheless, these Marines are often mistaken for Dubbo by players, due to the shared voice actor. [[343 Industries]] would later poke fun at this perceived canonical error with the ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]'' [[achievement]] entitled "[[Two Places, Same Time]]", which would unlock when the player triggered a voice line from one of these Marines in ''Halo 3: ODST''. The description of this achievement reads ''"I've got my eye on you, Marine."''

Dubbo was later featured in his first definitively canonical appearance in [[Chapter 4: Unsavory Means|Chapter 4]] of ''[[Halo Infinite: Memory Agent]]'', in which he appears as part of a interview discussing his experiences fighting alongside Master Chief during the events of the original ''Halo'' trilogy.
