"We lost Checkman in the atmosphere."
— Dutch

Checkman was an Orbital Drop Shock Trooper in the UNSC Marine Corps. Between 2540 and 2552, he was assigned to Master Sergeant Cortez' team aboard the destroyer DD-933, along with Dutch and O'Brien.[1] He and his squadmates were given the task of assassinating a Covenant Prophet on a Covenant-held planet Heian.

Like the rest of the squad, he was furious that a SPARTAN was placed in command of the mission.[2] During the team's drop to Heian, his SOEIV collided with an asteroid and entered the atmosphere sideways. He died due to an improper entry into the atmosphere.

Trivia

  • Checkman can be considered a "redshirt" character, as he was created merely to be killed.
