Keyes was taken aboard the Covenant {{Class|CCS|battlecruiser}}, the ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]''. There, he was interrogated, tortured, and held prisoner until the Master Chief, the ODSTs, and a group of [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] were able to rescue him with the help of Cortana. Combining what Keyes found out from what Cortana was able to hack from the Covenant battlenet, they were able to figure out some of the truth about Halo. They were forced to commandeer a [[Spirit]] dropship, during their escape and Keyes piloted it out himself, even going so far as to ram two [[Mgalekgolo]] on the flight out for "a little payback".<ref>'''Halo: Combat Evolved''', campaign level ''[[The Truth and Reconciliation]]''</ref>

Keyes then went to [[Alpha Base (Installation 04)|Alpha Base]], taking command of the base from [[Major (UNSC)|Major]] [[Antonio Silva]] briefly. He then took [[Staff Sergeant]] [[Avery Johnson]], [[Fire Team Charlie]] and [[Second Squad (Installation 04)|Second Squad]] to a facility they thought held a Covenant weapons cache. It turned out that the structure was one of the Halo's [[Flood containment facility|Flood containment facilities]]. Keyes and his Marines were ambushed by the [[Flood]]. During the ensuing firefight, a [[Pod infector]] latched onto his back and infected him.<ref>'''Halo: Combat Evolved''', campaign level ''[[343 Guilty Spark (level)|343 Guilty Spark]]''</ref>

*It is mentioned in ''Halo: The Cole Protocol'' that Keyes received the ODST tattoo on his right arm due to the fact that he saved a group of ODSTs aboard an Insurrectionist cargo ship. The tattoo is Japanese kanji for "bastard" or "bad-ass".<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 105''</ref> It would be different from the symbol seen on the back of ODST body armor in ''Halo 3'', which is apparently Chinese, not Japanese, despite holding the same meaning.

*Ribbon 7 on Keyes' uniform is out of order. In the modern U.S. Military, it would be worn before Ribbon 6 (however, this can be the common occurrence in works of fiction of portraying military personnel as slightly off regulations). Then again, it is also unlikely that Keyes, a naval captain, won an award for being an enlisted member of the Air Force. We can only assume that the meaning of these ribbons has changed.

*Keyes enjoyed smoking [[Sweet William cigar]]s along with many other people in the UNSC such as [[Franklin Mendez|CPO Mendez]] and[[Avery Junior Johnson| Sergeant Major Avery Johnson]], but was only ever seen using his pipe.

*On the ''[[Halo 3]] Legendary Edition'' bonus disc, [[Martin O'Donnell]] jokingly describes Captain Keyes of having at least twelve polygons. He is also jokingly called the "Captain of Exposition".<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwfnAM3dBrM#t=72 '''YouTube:''' ''Halo: Combat Evolved Developer Commentary Playthrough (2007)'']</ref>

*In ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', Captain Keyes' tunic features the ''[[Marathon]]'' logo, which is also the logo of the ''Pillar of Autumn''. The text on the tunic states "Hello My Name Keyes". The missing "is" probably did not fit onto the texture for his in-game uniform model. The ''Marathon'' logo is replaced with the [[Seventh Column]] symbol in ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' due to Bungie-Microsoft copyright issues, and again to a cog in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary]]''.
