==Biography==
==Biography==
Thomas was a sergeant before becoming a SPARTAN-IV. In early [[2553]], he was among the first recruits to join the SPARTAN-IV Program. During a training exercise he and Spartan [[Yeong-hao Holst]] were disabled by stun rounds. After Spartan [[Sarah Palmer]] completed the objective, [[Jun-A266]] berated them for nearly losing to the [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]]. He agreed with Spartan [[Vladimir Scruggs]] that they would have beaten twice as many soldiers had they had Spartan armor. [[Commander]] [[Musa-096]] informed him they would get armor when they showed they deserved it. When Jun introduced the SPARTAN-IVs to Musa, Joel recognized that he was a former [[SPARTAN-II]].<ref>'''[[Halo: Initiation]]''', ''Issue #2''</ref>

He was later onboard the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} when it came [[Raid on UNSC Infinity|under attack]] by [[New Colonial Alliance|Insurrectionists]] led by [[Ilsa Zane]]. He joined Palmer in choosing an armor, selecting the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Recruit|Recruit]] variant. While Spartans Palmer and Davis attempted to retake Infinity's bridge from space, Thomas, Jun, Scruggs and Holst repelled the Insurrectionists on S-deck. The rebel incursion was successfully repelled due to their efforts.<ref>'''[[Halo: Initiation]]''', ''Issue #3''</ref>

On [[2558#July|July 16, 2558]], Thomas participated in a joint Spartan and UNSC Marine operation against [[Jul 'Mdama]]'s [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|forces]] in [[Saviron]] on the UNSC colony of [[Oban]]. During the skirmish, Thomas used a [[H-295 Forward Observer Module|target designator]] to call in airstrikes in northeastern Saviron. When Commander Palmer ordered all teams to be on the lookout for 'Mdama and report any signs of enemy evacs, Thomas informed her that he had seen Covenant Phantoms turn back and descend into a nearby valley. He felt it could be handled by the [[Longsword]] he had just called in. The Longsword destroyed the two Phantoms after Palmer had tried to land her Warthog on top of one of them. She told Thomas to warn the Longsword that she and [[Gabriel Thorne]] were on the ground. He assured her that the pilot knew as everyone had seen her charging in.<ref>'''[[Halo: Escalation]]''', ''Issue #13''</ref>
