| {{Main|Battle of Installation 04}}
| |
| Dalu was one of many ODSTs stationed on the ''Autumn'' in [[2552#August|August 2552]], when the ship was able to escape the [[Fall of Reach]] and emerge over [[Installation 04]]. Dalu was able to survive the [[Landing on Installation 04|ODST deployment]] onto the ring, and was ultimately picked to head up reinforcement deployments to the [[Raid on the Truth and Reconciliation|raid on the ''Truth and Reconciliation'']], serving as supply master for the mission. Each time ''[[Echo 419]]'' deployed a fresh wave of Marines into the fighting, Dalu and his team served to scavenge the battlefield for armaments, coordinating the collection of [[Covenant]] arms including [[Type-25 plasma pistol|plasma pistols]], [[Okarda'phaa-pattern plasma rifle|plasma rifles]], [[Type-33 needler|needlers]], power packs, communications equipment, hand tools and even food. In total, Dalu's party were able to make off with six {{Pattern|Mamua'uda|Shade}} turrets for use in reinforcing [[Alpha Base (Installation 04)|Alpha Base]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=TF4|HTF|Chapter=4}}

| While Dalu served as a supply officer for the attack on the ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]'', McKay was forced to promote [[Master Sergeant]] [[Lister (Marine)|Lister]] to take Dalu's command of 2nd Platoon for her [[Raid on the Pillar of Autumn|raid on]] on the ''Pillar of Autumn''{{'}}s crash site.{{Ref/Reuse|TF4}} Dalu's fate following September 19 is unknown, though he was presumably killed with the destruction of Installation 04 on September 22, along with all other UNSC forces on the ring.
| | During the raid on the [[Truth and Reconciliation]] he was in charge of gathering weapons and technology. |

| ==List of appearances==
| | A soldier who felt a strong bond to the men under his command, Dalu was a commanding officer at [[Alpha Base]] and oversaw supply numbers as well as combat. He oversaw [[Shade]] Turret placement around the base, too. He survived the [[Battle of Installation 04]] up until the [[ODST]]s took over the ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]'' but was killed soon after when the control conduit was severed by McKay.<ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], page 116</ref> |
