| Jorge was transferred from the main Spartan-II contingent (under the operational command of [[Naval Special Weapons]]) to [[Unified Ground Command]]'s [[Special Warfare Group Three]] at an unknown point during the [[Human-Covenant War]]. His reassignment may have been facilitated under the guise of being too heavily wounded to continue active duty.{{Ref/Note|In ''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]'' (page 240), Dr. Halsey claims that all available Spartan-IIs (save for [[Gray Team]], who are out of contact) have been assembled on Reach for [[Operation: RED FLAG]]. She states that three have been killed in action and one has been too heavily wounded to continue active duty between [[2542]] and 2552. In a [[Dr. Halsey's personal journal|personal journal]] entry dated August 27, 2552 (the day of the briefing), Halsey notes that she had lied in some way during the assembly ("That lie about all the Spartans gathered here, save for Gray - will that come back to haunt me?"). While her lie almost certainly regarded Jorge's deployment on Reach (as she notes that he is "obviously preoccupied" in the same entry), whether this means that Jorge was the wounded Spartan is unclear.}}

|
| In late [[2551]], Jorge joined NOBLE Team in the [[defense of Concord]] against a [[Covenant]] attack. During the ground campaign, NOBLE assisted local [[UNSC Army Rangers|Army Ranger]] forces in repelling Covenant air superiority, before driving invading forces from the planet's large cities. In the process, the team's [[D77-TC Pelican|Pelican]] dropship was shot down in the [[Hinterlands region]], leading to the team manually walking to the town of [[Skathi]] to make a stand against an encroaching Covenant assault force. During the battle, [[Catherine-B320]] devised [[Operation: OFFSET EYE|an operation]] and split the team in two, taking herself, [[Rosenda-A344]], and [[Thom-A293]] in an [[M862 Arctic Warthog]] to blunt the Covenant assault force head-on, capturing a {{Pattern|Zashk|Draugr}} in the process. As such, Jorge was left behind in Skathi alongside [[Carter-A259]] and [[Jun-A266]], and assisted the town's citizens in collecting ammunition and preparing defences. During the fighting, Skathi was attacked by [[Banshee]]s, though spared the brunt of the attack thanks to the actions of the advance group. By the time of extraction later in the day, Jorge had assisted in removing debris from the middle of town, before NOBLE were redeployed to [[Fumirole]] in light of intelligence reports on a [[Covenant fleet]] massing near the system.{{Ref/Novel|Halo: Winter Contention}}
| | On July 24th, prior to the Fall of Reach, Jorge, along with the other members of Noble Team, investigated an incident at the [[Visegrad Relay]]. There, they discovered that [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] forces had bypassed Reach's defenses and had infiltrated key installations and communications centers.<ref name="winter">'''Halo: Reach''', campaign level ''[[Winter Contingency (level)|Winter Contingency]]''</ref> During the preliminary stages of the Covenant invasion of Reach, Jorge and Noble Team partook in multiple operations against Covenant forces on the surface of Reach, including a counter-offensive operation to retake the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]]'s [[Sword Base]] on July 26th and a large-scale UNSC assault on a Covenant-occupied site and the neutralization of a [[Spire One|Covenant Spire]] on August 12th.<ref>'''Halo: Reach''' campaign level ''[[ONI: Sword Base]]''</ref><ref>'''Halo: Reach''' campaign level ''[[Tip of The Spear]]''</ref> |

|
| Though naturally strong and driven, Jorge was not selected for the SPARTAN-II program based on his physical strength and tenacity alone. Indeed, where others failed Jorge often had a plan, and he preferred to overcome obstacles with subtlety and minimum expenditure of lives and resources. While brave and exceptionally lucky, Jorge was something of a fatalist toward the end of his career, believing that he had long outlived the span of time allotted to a Spartan warrior. For this reason, he would often take risks he deemed worthwhile for the good of his unit and the UNSC.{{Ref/Reuse|universe}}

| Jorge was fluent in the [[Hungarian|Hungarian language]]; he speaks Hungarian at various points, including one instance where he introduces himself by saying, ''"A nevem Jorge"'' ("My name is Jorge").
