Phoenix Logs/UNSC Units/Warrant Officer Quinn

lst Squad, lst Platoon, B Company, 9th Shock Troops Battalion.

Major Vaughan's command squad, callsign Sunray 1-1, is the lead element of

Boomerang Company, the UNSC's most elite force of Orbital Drop Shock

Troopers [though that's what they all say].

Signals Reconnaissance Specialist.

Quinn has been many things in her life, but none have been as meaningful as

service in the ranks of the Spirit of Fire's 9th Shock Troops Battalion. A highly

trained signals intelligence analyst and electronic warfare operator, Quinn

accompanies ODST pre—assault and deep strike post—assault teams on missions

that require the application of technical wizardry in addition to raw firepower.

With Professor Anders' departure on the Halo ring it has fallen to Quinn and

other UNSC personnel who have demonstrated affinity with—and knowledge

of—Forerunner systems to be boots—on—the—ground resources for task force

commanders. It's a job she relishes.

Quinn and Major Vaughan have a long history of service together on board the

Spirit of Fire. Quinn has no particular love for the ship itself—and despises its

recycled air and the peculiar pull of the barracks' artificial gravity—but she cares

deeply for the crew and troops aboard it. When Quinn accompanies Vaughan on

his Ark expeditions, she serves as the command squad's technician and "Ark

door opener," in addition to handling a prototype target designator for the

Spirit of Fire's new EMP Ordnance support drop.
