{{Quote|Eddie Buck is a career Marine that has seen more than his fair share of this war. He has had the dubious honor of participating in many of the wars’ most vicious battles; including both the [[Harvest Campaign|liberation of Harvest]] and the [[Fall of Reach]]. That he has survived through it all speaks volumes. Truly, if he was any better he’d be a [[SPARTAN-II Program|Spartan]].| Profile on ''Edward Buck'' <ref name="squad">[http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=Halo3ODSTsquad '''Bungie.net''' - ''Meet the Squad'']</ref>}}

Counting time spent in [[Cryo chamber|cryo-sleep]], Buck is a 25-year veteran of the war and served in numerous battles. Watching so many of his fellow Marines die has left Buck thick-skinned and short-fused, but this wasn't always so. He was regarded as an extremely skilled Marine and by the [[Battle of Earth]], was the leader of a special [[Unidentified Shock Trooper squad|ODST-ONI unit]] until [[Captain (Navy)|Captain]] [[Veronica Dare]] took responsibility before the drop on [[New Mombasa]], [[Kenya]] in [[2552#October|October 20, 2552]].
