Dale was an Orbital Drop Shock Trooper during the Human-Covenant War.[1] He was a former Colonial Military Administration soldier whose allegiance to the UNSC was highly suspect.
Biography
Battle of New Jerusalem
- Main article: Battle of New Jerusalem
In September 2552 the city of Mount Haven on the colony of New Jerusalem[note 1] was invaded by the Covenant, who proceeded to dig downriver of the city in search of Forerunner artifacts. In response the UNSC sent in a Company of ODST's for a snatch-and-run operation; they would steal the artifacts then retreat from the planet.
However, unbeknownst to the UNSC, a team of ODST's had their own agenda. The nine ODST's were all former CMA veterans, and felt that they had given enough to the UNSC cause. Their plan was to break into a bank in the city center, and use a spare Pelican dropship to steal the gold and platinum ingots stored in the bank's vault. They justified their theft by saying that the precious metals were going to be glassed anyway, and therefore they "didn't exist anymore." The team would use the gold to retire.
Their plan hit a snag however when they discovered a schoolteacher and a group of children taking refuge in the bank vault, causing an argument to erupt between the five ODST's in the vault. Gage Yevgenny wanted to abandon their theft and evacuate the children. Felicia Sanderson was in favor of calling in an extra Pelican. Sita, Dale and Orrin however wanted to abandon the civilians to their deaths. Tempers flared, and the ODST's turned their weapons on each other; Gage and Felicia against the other three. Dale was shot and killed in the brief shootout; his shots may have wounded Gage or killed Felicia.
List of appearances
- Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe
- Dirt (First appearance)
Notes
- ^ It has been confirmed in a comment by Tobias Buckell here that the rookie in Dirt is the same character as The Rookie from Halo 3: ODST. Thus, the battle depicted in the story has to be the Battle of New Jerusalem, as it was the last battle in which The Rookie participated before the Battle of Earth.
