'''Spartan Terry Hedge''' was a [[Spartan-IV]] serving aboard the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} as the leader of [[Fireteam Lancer]].{{Ref/SpOps|Id=SOEL|Episode=Expendable|Level=Lancer}} He participated in the [[Requiem Campaign|campaign]] against [[Jul 'Mdama]]'s [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|Covenant]] and mechanical [[Promethean]] constructs within [[Requiem]] in early [[2558]].{{Ref/Reuse|SOEL}}

==Biography==
===Spartan augmentation===
By some point following the [[Human-Covenant War]], Terry Hedge, already a veteran, had gone through a careful screening process and had been enrolled as a [[Spartan-IV]] candidate.{{Ref/Book|Id=HOSFM21|OSFM|Page=21}} He soon thereafter underwent a series of [[Project ORCHID|biological augmentation]]s which included physical, neurological, muscular, and skeletal enhancements, in addition to gene therapy and an implanted datacluster in his [[neural interface]] that could work with [[Mjolnir]] armor and [[artificial intelligence]]s.{{Ref/Book|Id=HOSFM24-25|OSFM|Page=24-25}}

===Requiem campaign===
After the [[New Phoenix Incident]],{{Ref/Novel|Id=tor|Halo: Trial of Reckoning}} Hedge was assigned to lead [[Fireteam Lancer]] aboard the {{UNSCShip|Infinity}}, and as such he traveled with the ship when it deployed to the [[Forerunner]] [[shield world]] known as [[Requiem]] in early [[2558]].{{Ref/Reuse|SOEL}} The ''Infinity'' departed from [[Earth]] on February 6 and had arrived at the shield world before 0500 hours the next day.{{Ref/Twitter|Id=todayinhalo|bsangel|696003177733206016|Jessica Shea|Quote=#TodayInHalo 2/6/2558 UNSC Infinity departs from Earth, heading to Requiem to secure the Forerunner planet from Covenant control.|D=6|M=2|Y=2016}}{{Ref/Game|Id=IBP|H4|[[Halo 4 Limited Edition|Limited Edition]]|Detail=[[Infinity Briefing Packet|''Infinity'' briefing packet]]}} Relatively near the end of the campaign within the shield world, [[Fireteam Lancer]] was tasked with holding a site known as "[[Apex]]." The discovery of a [[Jul 'Mdama's Covenant|Covenant]] [[Warrens|nest]] in the hills nearby prompted Hedge to report in to the ''Infinity''.{{Ref/SpOps|Id=SOEMR|Episode=Expendable|Level=Majestic Rescue}} Spartan Commander [[Sarah Palmer]] acknowledged his report and subsequently ordered [[Fireteam Crimson]] to assist Lancer in clearing out the enemy from its position.{{Ref/Reuse|SOEL}}{{Ref/Reuse|SOEMR}} Once Crimson touched down in the area, Hedge and two others from Lancer met up with the team and let it be known that the Covenant forces had hidden shield generators which barred entry into a series of caves with [[active camouflage]]. Once Crimson had dealt with the generators, with assistance from Lancer, Palmer ordered Lancer to follow Crimson inside. Together, the two fireteams launched a coordinated attack on the aliens, which were assisted by mechanical [[Promethean]] constructs. In one of the caves, the Spartans discovered and freed [[Fireteam Switchback]], which had previously been taken prisoner. All three teams were subsequently evacuated on a single [[D79-TC Pelican]].{{Ref/Reuse|SOEL}}

===Battle for Zeta Halo===
{{Main|Battle for Zeta Halo}}
{{Quote|No retreat, no surrender, and no quarter. That's what's on the menu for us today, and it's our job to damn well make sure it's the same for them.|Hedge to other survivors at the House of Reckoning}}
On [[2559#December|December 12, 2559]], Spartan Hedge was onboard {{UNSCShip|Infinity}} when it was [[Battle over Installation 07|ambushed]] by [[Banished]] forces upon arrival at [[Installation 07]]. As the ''Infinity'' fell to the Banished assault, [[Captain (NAVCOM)|Captain]] [[Thomas Lasky]] was evacuated from the ship, and Spartan [[Hudson Griffin]] ordered all Spartans to evacuate.{{Ref/Game|HI|Audio log (Halo Infinite)#Evacuation 2|Spartan Audio log|Detail=Evacuation #01 - Infinity Down}} At some point during the battle, Hedge was captured by the Banished. He was taken to the [[House of Reckoning (location)|House of Reckoning]] in February 2560, after [[Battle of the Mortal Reverie|the Banished's assault]] on the wreckage of {{UNSCShip|Mortal Reverie}}. Hedge, along with [[Gunnery Sergeant]] [[Elena Bobrov]], [[Lance Corporal]] [[Singh (Installation 07)|Singh]], and a [[Sangheili]] they nicknamed "[[Doc]]", were forced to participate in the Trials of Atriox, a ritual devised by [[War Chief]] [[Escharum]] in which UNSC survivors were to defend a large room from multiple waves of Banished troops. If they survived, they would be fed food and water, only to go through the trial again on the next day.{{Ref/Reuse|tor}} Given that Escharum told [[John-117]] that no one had survived the Trials of Atriox,{{Ref/Level|HI|House of Reckoning|Quote=Many of your kind have entered this arena. None have left.|Quotee=Escharum}} Hedge was likely killed by Banished.{{Ref/Reuse|farewell}}

==Equipment==
Like others on Fireteam Lancer, Spartan Hedge armored himself in [[RECRUIT-class Mjolnir|RECRUIT-class]] [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor (GEN2)|GEN2 Mjolnir]] during his time within Requiem.{{Ref/Reuse|SOEL}}
