His tactics kept his people safe, as neither the [[Covenant]] nor the [[UNSC]] could locate or put a stop to his operation. |

| {{Main|Massacre at Eridanus Secundus}}
| |
| In [[2552]], Jiles assisted the ''[[Gettysburg]]-[[Ascendant Justice]]'' hybrid vessel in making repairs before they would return to [[Earth]]. He had been blackmailed by [[Admiral]] [[Danforth Whitcomb|Whitcomb]], who brought the vessel to Eridanus Secundus knowing the Covenant would track them and locate the asteroid. Jiles did all he could to help repair the vessels before the Covenant attacked. The humans were able to hold off one cruiser, but when thirty arrived, a victory was nearly unachieavable if Whitcomb had stayed. After the Admiral abandoned the installation, the Covenant proceeded to press on the asteroid base. He, along with all the other inhabitants of the asteroid colony, are presumed dead, crushed under the might of the Covenant. <ref>'''Halo: First Strike''', ''page 281''</ref>

The humans were able to hold off one cruiser, but when 30 arrived, there was no way to win and survive if Whitcomb had stayed. Unfortunately the [[Covenant]] attacked before then. Governor Jiles is assumed killed when the vessel was forced to retreat from the area. |
