| '''Private O'Brien''' was a [[UNSC]] [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marine]] who was stationed aboard [[Reach Station Gamma]], Dock 9, during the [[Fall of Reach]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=tfor|TFoR|Page=325}} | | '''Private O'Brien''' was one of the [[UNSC]] [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] aboard [[Reach Station Gamma]], Dock 9, above [[Reach]]. He, along with [[Staff Sergeant Johnson]], [[PFC Jenkins]], and [[Private Bisenti]], were there fighting a group of [[Jackals]] when [[John-117]] and [[Linda-058]] boarded the station to destroy the logs of the [[ONI]] [[Prowler]] ''[[Circumference]]''. He was picked up with Johnson and the Chief when they took a [[Pelican]] and flew back to the ''[[Pillar of Autumn]]''. When the ''Pillar of Autumn'' was boarded, the Chief recognized him (but did not remember his name) and saved him from a Jackal. He was killed either when the [[Covenant]] boarded the ''Pillar of Autumn'' or during the events on [[Installation 04]]. It is likely he was the Crazed Marine from 343 Guilty Spark, as in The Fall of Reach, when John encounters Johnson's squad, Jenkins and Bisenti are also part of it. The Crazed Marine only mentions Johnson, Bisenti, and Jenkins, and not Mendoza, however Mendoza's body is found later. |

| {{Main|Fall of Reach}}
| |
| When [[Reach]] was attacked, O'Brien, along with [[Staff Sergeant]] [[Avery Johnson]], [[Private First Class|PFC]] [[Wallace Jenkins]], and [[Private (UNSC)|Private]] [[Bisenti]], were stationed above the planet. They were fighting a very large group of [[Kig-yar]] boarders with difficulty when [[Master Chief Petty Officer|MCPO]] [[John-117]] and [[Petty Officer, Second Class|PO2]]s [[Linda-058]] and [[James-005]] boarded the station to destroy the logs of the [[ONI]] ship, {{UNSCShip|Circumference}}.{{Ref/Reuse|tfor}} O'Brien and his Marine companions helped them accomplish this task, although James was lost and Linda was badly wounded. When they completed their mission, they were taken by a [[D77-TC Pelican]] dropship to the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}}, escaping the ensuing destruction of Reach.{{Ref/Novel|TFoR|Page=328}}

| ==Production notes==
| |
| While the subsequent whereabouts of Johnson, Bisenti, and Jenkins on [[Installation 04]] are known, it is unclear what happened to O'Brien. In ''[[Halo: The Flood]]'', the Master Chief briefly encounters an unnamed wounded marine on the ''Pillar of Autumn'' who he remembers rescuing from an orbital station above Reach. This may be O'Brien.
