| Haverson was attached to {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} when it crashed on [[Installation 04]] in [[2552|September 2552]]. Haverson was among those evacuated via [[Bumblebee escape pod]]s and managed to survive the [[Battle of Installation 04|battle on the installation]]. Just before the ring's destruction, he fled in a [[D77-TC Pelican]] with [[Petty Officer, Second Class]] [[Shiela Polaski]], [[Staff Sergeant]] [[Avery Junior Johnson|Avery Johnson]], and [[Corporal]] [[Locklear]]. They hid in the debris field of Installation 04 until they made contact with [[Cortana]] and [[SPARTAN-II Program|SPARTAN]] [[John-117]] who had escaped in a [[GA-TL1 Longsword]] fighter.{{Ref/Reuse|red}} | | Haverson was the ONI officer attached to the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}}. When that vessel crashed on [[Installation 04]], Haverson was present and managed to survive until the destruction of that [[Halo]], when he fled in a [[Pelican]] with [[Petty Officer Second Class]] [[Polaski]], [[Staff Sergeant Avery Johnson]], and [[Corporal]] [[Locklear]]. They hid in the debris field of the Halo until they made contact with [[Cortana]] and the [[Master Chief]]. As soon as they met on the [[Longsword]], he recognized the [[Spartan]]. |

| The Pelican and Longsword were not capable of [[Slipstream space|slipspace]] travel, leaving the human survivors with no means of immediate escape. Thus, in order to return to UNSC-controlled space, they captured the [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] [[Covenant supercarrier|supercarrier]] ''[[Ascendant Justice]]''. Haverson gave tactical command to the SPARTAN, despite the former's superior rank. The survivors then traveled to [[Reach]], which had recently [[Fall of Reach|fallen to the Covenant]] because of the [[United Nations Space Command Emergency Priority Order 098831A-1|Cole Protocol]] prevented them from traveling back into UNSC territory with a captured Covenant ship. While in orbit, Cortana had the crew join ''Ascendant Justice'' to {{UNSCShip|Gettysburg}}, a [[UNSC frigate|frigate]] that was severely damaged during the invasion of Reach. | | The Pelican and Longsword were not capable of a [[Slipspace]] jump, so the group managed to capture the ''[[Ascendant Justice]]'' and Haverson gave tactical command to the Chief, despite his superior rank. They then were forced to travel to [[Reach]] because the [[Cole Protocol]] prevented them from heading back into UNSC territory. |

| Haverson joined John to the surface of Reach, where the Master Chief rescued the surviving SPARTANs, Dr. [[Catherine Halsey]], and [[Vice Admiral]] [[Danforth Whitcomb]], who had recovered a mysterious [[Forerunner]] [[Forerunner crystal|crystal]]. The ground team was soon attacked by a large Covenant force, prompting them to leave the planet. While fleeing several Covenant ships through slipspace, the crystal warped the space and time around their slipstream, creating an anomalous "alternate" slipspace. Haverson and the others were then forced to engage a small Covenant battle group within the strange dimension before arriving in the [[Eridanus system]]. Haverson then accompanied Whitcomb and his team to the rebel-held asteroid habitat of [[Eridanus Secundus]] to talk with [[Jacob Jiles|Governor Jacob Jiles]] of the [[Insurrectionist|Eridanus rebels]]. Eventually, a small Covenant task force arrived at Eridanus Secundus, though the crew of the ''Gettysburg/Ascendant Justice'' were able to repel them. However, a larger Covenant force soon arrived, prompting the UNSC forces to leave the rebels to their fate. | | Haverson traveled with them to the surface of Reach, where the Chief rounded up the survivng Spartans. Haverson also accompanied [[Vice Admiral]] [[Whitcomb]]'s team to [[Eridanus Secundus]] to talk with [[Governor Jacob Jiles]] of the [[Eridanus Rebels]]. |

| After escaping Eridanus Secundus, the ''Gettysburg/Ascendant Justice''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s crew discovered the Covenant repair and refit station ''[[Unyielding Hierophant]]'', which was preparing a [[Truth's fleet|fleet of over five hundred warships]] for an invasion of [[Earth]]. The SPARTANs then infiltrated the station, sabotaging its reactors and prompting to explode; after this, Haverson and Whitcomb distracted the Covenant fleet gathered around the ''Unyielding Hierophant'' by destroying a single {{Pattern|Ruma|light carrier}} and broadcasting a video feed of the Forerunner crystal. The zealous Covenant commanders swarmed the ship in an attempt to recover the artifact. This plan drew most Covenant ships in the system close to the ''Unyielding Hierophant'' just before it exploded, destroying the station, ''Ascendant Justice'', and over five hundred Covenant ships, as well as killing Admiral Whitcomb and Lieutenant Haverson. Haverson and Whitcomb's sacrifice temporarily but effectively delayed the [[Battle of Earth|invasion of Earth]].

| Haverson's name was later added to the [[ONI Memorial|memorial]] at [[ONI Alpha Site (location)|ONI Alpha Site]] in [[New Mombasa]].<ref>'''Halo 3: ODST''', ''ONI Memorial''</ref> Additionally, after the deaths of Whitcomb and Haverson, the Master Chief added both men to his team roster along with Corporal Locklear and Petty Officer Polaski and listed them as KIA.<ref>'''Halo: First Strike''', ''page 400''</ref> | | Haverson's death came when he and Admiral Whitcomb took the wounded [[flagship]] and crashed it into the ''[[Unyielding Hierophant]]''. This attracted the five hundred other ships and they all loomed closer. The Chief then returned to the [[UNSC Gettysburg|UNSC ''Gettysburg'']], after crippling the reactors of the ''Unyielding Hierophant''. It exploded, killing the Admiral and Haverson and destroying over five hundred Covenant ships. The sacrifice of Haverson and Whitcomb delayed the destruction of [[Earth]]. |
