| Wagner was trained at the [[Reach Naval Academy]], which was the closest thing he had ever had to a home in the [[Inner Colonies]].<ref name="home">'''Halo: First Strike''', ''page 102'', (''Wagner, who'd two years ago had a third of his body burned by Covenant plasma and not once screamed or shed a tear, paused and blinked away the moisture blurring his vision. "I trained at the Naval Academy on Reach, sir. It was the closest thing I had to a home in the Outer Colonies."'')</ref>{{Ref/Note|''Halo: First Strike'' mentions that Reach was the closest thing to a home he had in the ''Outer'' Colonies. Since Reach is an Inner Colony, this is considered a typographical error.}} In [[2550]], he had almost a third of his body burned by Covenant [[plasma]], and he reportedly never screamed nor shed a single tear.{{Ref/Reuse|home}}

| Wagner held the rank of [[Lieutenant]] in [[2552]]. Lieutenant Wagner's [[UNSC prowler|prowler]] was one of few vessels to escape the catastrophic [[Fall of Reach]] in 2552. Making the trip to Earth in a record time of four days, he ostensibly broke the [[Cole Protocol]], neglecting the random jumps required by the protocol's Article 1; however, it was a well-known common practice for ONI to "bend" the protocol. In any case, Wagner believed this was justified due to the value of the intel they possessed. Fortunately, the [[Covenant]] did not follow him, nor could they, given his stealth was never compromised.{{Ref/Reuse|fs11}} | | Wagner held the rank of [[Lieutenant]] in [[2552]]. Lieutenant Wagner's [[UNSC Prowler|Prowler]] was one of few vessels to escape the catastrophic [[Battle of Reach]] in [[2552]]. He prepared the official report for the [[UNSC]] about the fall of planet [[Reach]] and was debriefed about it by the Security Council, consisting of [[Colonel James Ackerson]], [[Lord Hood|Fleet Admiral Hood]], [[Major General Nicolas Strauss]] at [[HighCom Facility Bravo-6]], [[HIGHCOM]]'s headquarters. He gave them all the information he had, including the escape of the ''[[Pillar of Autumn|UNSC Pillar of Autumn]]'', and the [[glassing]] of the planet. It also did not state that he broke Article 1 of the [[Cole Protocol]], but fortunately the [[Covenant]] did not follow him. |

| He prepared the official report for the [[UNSC]] about the fall of planet [[Reach]] and was debriefed about it by the [[UNSC Security Council]], consisting of, but not limited to [[Colonel]] [[James Ackerson]], [[Lord Hood|Fleet Admiral Terrence Hood]], [[Nicolas Strauss|Major General Nicolas Strauss]] and about a half-dozen other command rank UNSC officers at [[HIGHCOM Facility Bravo-6]], [[UNSC High Command|HIGHCOM]]'s headquarters. He gave them all the information he had, including the escape of the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}}, and the apparent [[glassing]] of the planet.{{Ref/Reuse|fs11}} Wagner was acute enough to detect a huge breach in military protocol, when Colonel Ackerson appeared to be in a position to cow a Major General. Ackerson had a huge dislike of Wagner, either because of the Colonel's characteristically confrontational demeanor, or as [[Lysithea]] put it, "he wanted to stick someone's head on a pike." When Wagner informed the council that he would like to volunteer for a recon mission back to Reach, Colonel Ackerson immediately berated him, telling him they would not send any ships to confirm a dead planet. Mockingly asserting that Wagner had sustained trauma, Ackerson ordered him to visit the infirmary and get a "clean bill of medicine before returning to active duty."{{Ref/Reuse|fs11}}
| | In [[2550]], he had had almost a third of his body burned by [[Covenant]] plasma. He never screamed or shed a tear, until the briefing, when he discussed the fall of Reach, which was the closest thing he had ever had to a home in the inner colonies. [[Colonel James Ackerson]] suspected he had mental problems due to [[slipspace]] radiation.{{Clear}}{{ONI Personnel}} |
