'''Lance Corporal "Snaky" Jones''' is a [[UNSC]] [[Marine]] and [[ODST]]. Jones was a sniper with the Helljumpers, always carrying a [[Sniper Rifle]] with him. He swore a lot and enjoyed candy bars.
==Biography==
Jones was one of the [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] stationed aboard the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} and was evacuated with the other personnel on board. Under the command of [[First Lieutenant]] [[Melissa McKay]], Jones joined a convoy that was ferrying supplies to [[Alpha Base (Installation 04)|Alpha Base]]. However, [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] ground forces under the command of [[Noga 'Putumee]] soon attacked the convoy using [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraiths]], [[Banshees]] and [[Type-32 Rapid Assault Vehicle|Ghosts]]. Jones was in the fourth [[M12 Force Application Vehicle|Warthog]] with [[Sergeant (UNSC)|Sergeant]] [[Corly]] when the vehicle was hit by a Plasma Mortar round from a [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraith]]. Corly was killed but Jones was thrown free.{{Ref/Reuse|TF6}} Once recovered, he discovered that his helmet (with his team mic) was missing; as a result, he could no longer call for a pickup as the supply convoy left him for dead. He retrieved his weapon and some supplies scavenged from the [[Pillar of Autumn]], and then followed his sniper training and climbed to some cover and an elevated firing position in the form of rocks.{{Ref/Reuse|TF6}}


He was one of the Marines stationed on the [[Pillar of Autumn]] and was aboard it when it crashed.
Targets soon presented themselves in the forms of two [[Sangheili]], one being [[Sangheili Minor|Minor]] [[Ado 'Mortumee]] and the other being a Field Master, [[Noga 'Putumee]]. His first shot decapitated Ado 'Mortumee, but his second, aimed at 'Putumee, missed as the Field Master back-flipped for cover. The Covenant commander responded by calling down [[Banshees]] to locate and kill the [[human]].{{Ref/Reuse|TF6}} It is unknown if Jones was killed by the Banshees' attack run, made it back to Alpha Base or was killed by the Flood, or perhaps killed when [[John-117|Spartan-117]] detonated the ''Pillar of Autumn'''s engines and destroyed Halo. As such, his fate is unknown, but he is almost certainly dead.


Under the command of [[First Lieutenant Melissa McKay]], Jones was in a convoy that was ferrying supplies to [[Alpha Base]]. [[Covenant]] ground forces under the command of [[Noga 'Putumee]] attacked the convoy using [[Wraiths]], [[Banshees]], and [[Ghosts]]. Jones was in the fourth Warthog, under command of [[Sergeant Corly]] when his vehicle was hit by a plasma mortar round from the [[Wraiths]]. The vehicle toppled end over end, and Corly was killed while Jones was thrown free and survived.<ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], page 156</ref> He then climbed to a hill and spotted two [[Elites]] on it, one being a [[Minor Domo Elite]] [[Ado 'Mortumee]] and the other being a [[Zealot]], 'Putumee. For some unknown reason, he decided to kill the lower ranking [[Elite]] first.<ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], page 159</ref> He decapitated 'Mortumee with a shot but his second missed, allowing 'Putumee to survive. 'Putumee then ordered the [[Banshees]] to find Jones' position and take him out.<ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], page 159</ref> His fate after that was unknown, as the book did not mention him again. However, it is safe to assume that he died along with every one else when the [[Master Chief]] blew up the [[Pillar of Autumn]]'s fusion drive core, effectively destroying [[Installation 04]]. As for 'Putumee, he was later killed in the raid on [[Alpha Base]] by a [[Scorpion Tank]]<ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], page 218</ref>.
