'''Petty Officer Jeffries''' was a [[D77-TC|Pelican]] pilot in the [[UNSC Navy]].<ref>'''[[Halo: The Cole Protocol]]''', ''page 24''</ref>

==Biography==
Jeffries was a crew member on board the [[UNSC]] [[UNSC destroyer|destroyer]] {{UNSCShip|Armageddon's Edge}}. He had a wife and two children.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Cole Protocol]]''', ''page 26''</ref> Although he was laid-back in his behavior, he was incredibly skilled in [[Pelican]] piloting. He piloted the Pelican [[Gamma 54]].

After the ''Armageddon's Edge'' arrived at [[Chi Rho]] in the [[Ectanus 45]] system, Jeffries flew [[Lieutenant (UNSC)|Lieutenant]] [[Jacob Keyes]] to the Bacigalupi Memorial Nature Preserve so that [[Private (UNSC)|Private]] [[Tom Gerencer]] could drive Keyes to [[Camp Patmos]]. <ref>'''[[Halo: The Cole Protocol]]''', ''page 29''</ref>

Despite disapproving of Jeffries' showing off his flying skills, Keyes was impressed by Jeffries' piloting ability. In fact, during his meeting with [[Commander (UNSC)|Commander]] [[Dmitri Zheng]] and [[Vice Admiral]] [[Jean Mawikizi]], Keyes requested that Jeffries be transferred to the frigate {{UNSCShip|Midsummer Night}}, which they would use in a mission to suppress [[Jason Kincaide]]'s rioting on [[Charybdis IX]]. After Keyes informed him of this, Jeffries warned him of rumors he heard about Zheng's past. Keyes then lectured Jeffries on his habit of not following scheduled flight plans. <ref>'''[[Halo: The Cole Protocol]]''', ''page 39''</ref>

On board the ''Midsummer Night'', Jeffries became fast friends with fellow Pelican pilot [[Finlay]]. Two days after joining the ''Midsummer Night'', Jeffries flew a platoon of [[ODST]]s to the civilian cargo hauler ''[[Finnegan's Wake]]''. When insurrectionist explosives destroyed Gamma 54, Jeffries was lightly wounded. [[ODST]]s pumped [[biofoam]] into him and stabilized him. Shortly afterward, he was sent back to the ''Midsummer Night'', where he made a full recovery.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Cole Protocol]]''', ''page 54''</ref> He later helped [[Faison]], [[Chesnick]], and the other surviving [[ODST]]s prank Keyes: Jeffries' condition was reported to Keyes as serious, so the lieutenant (feeling guilty for transferring Jeffries to the ship) rushed to the medical bay, where he was tackled by the ODSTs, who tattooed him as a show of how impressed they were with how he handled the attack on the ''Finnegan's Wake''. <ref>'''[[Halo: The Cole Protocol]]''', ''page 102''</ref>

Shortly afterward, Jeffries piloted a new [[Pelican]] and transported [[Major]] [[Akio Watanabe]], [[Jacob Keyes]], and other officers to their mission to suppress [[Jason Kincaide]]'s riot in the [[Scyllion Warehouse District]] on Charybdis IX. Later, Jeffries' dropship was shot down by Insurrectionists during an attempt to extract Lieutenant Keyes after the mission went wrong.  Keyes was greatly saddened by Jeffries' death, especially since he was the one who had Jeffries transferred to the ''Midsummer Night''. <ref>'''[[Halo: The Cole Protocol]]''', ''page 123''</ref>
