==History==
==History==
In March of [[2558]], Fireteam Bailey, led by [[Paul DeMarco]],<ref>'''[[Halo: Escalation]]''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 4|Issue #4]]''</ref> and  [[Fireteam Jackknife]] were assigned to escort and provide security for [[Fleet Admiral]] [[Terrence Hood]] and [[Arbiter]] [[Thel 'Vadam]] on a diplomatic mission to [[Ealen IV]]. Fireteam Bailey was ordered to stay back as [[overwatch]] for the ships as the others proceeded to the processing center. While Hood and 'Vadam were negotiating with the [[Jiralhanae]] [[Chieftain]] [[Lydus]], they came under attack by [[Vata 'Gajat's mercenary group|Covenant mercenaries]]. Despite facing heavy resistance from Covenant forces, Fireteam Bailey managed to clear a path for the delegates and escort them to a nearby parts depot.<ref>'''Halo: Escalation''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 1|Issue #1]]''</ref>
In March of [[2558]], Fireteam Bailey, led by [[Paul Demarco]] of [[Fireteam Majestic]], and  [[Fireteam Jackknife]] were assigned to escort and provide security for [[Fleet Admiral]] [[Terrence Hood]] and [[Kaidon]] [[Thel 'Vadam]] on a diplomatic mission to [[Ealen IV]]. Fireteam Bailey was ordered to stay back as overwatch for the ships as the others proceeded to the processing center. While Hood and 'Vadam were negotiating with the [[Jiralhanae]] [[Chieftain]] [[Lydus]], the [[Covenant remnant]] attacked the delegates. Despite facing heavy resistance from Covenant forces, Fireteam Bailey managed to clear a path for the delegates and escort them to a nearby parts depot.<ref>'''[[Halo: Escalation]]''', ''Issue #1''</ref>
 
As the party attempted to escape the storage depot, Fireteam Bailey and DeMarco were ordered to secure the area and escort the delegation to an old fortified redoubt. Soon after their escape, they were intercepted by a Covenant [[Kmiro'sish-pattern Lich|Lich]]. After a brief skirmish with the Covenant leading to the destruction of the Lich, Bailey stayed with the delegation as Fireteam Jackknife and the delegation's bodyguards went on ahead to ensure that the redoubt was safe to use as shelter.<ref>'''Halo: Escalation''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 2|Issue #2]]''</ref>


Arriving at the redoubt, Palmer ordered DeMarco and the rest of Bailey to sweep the courtyard and provide an inventory of any supplies left behind. As the Covenant ships approached the redoubt, Fireteam Bailey was forced to stay behind in order to secure the lives of the delegates. Manually utilizing [[Cheru-pattern Tyrant|anti-aircraft cannon]]s, Bailey succeeded in holding off [[Vata 'Gajat]]'s forces long enough for the delegates to escape. DeMarco was killed when the Covenant destroyed his cannon while the other members of Fireteam Bailey survived the battle.<ref name="Catalog">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/forums/db05ce78845f4120b062c50816008e5d/topics/canon-fodder-1-15-15-just-getting-started/1091aee3-f861-4b8b-b405-f3dfd01a4e65/posts?page=2#post25 '''Halo Waypoint Forums''' - '' Canon Fodder 1-15-15: Just Getting Started'']</ref> DeMarco's sacrifice was later commemorated at a memorial service aboard ''Infinity''.<ref>'''Halo: Escalation''', ''[[Halo: Escalation Issue 3|Issue #3]]''</ref>
