L. Jenkins
From Halopedia, the Halo wiki
Template:Ratings Template:Human Character Infobox L. Jenkins was a UNSC Marine infantryman assigned to the 405th or 77th during the First Battle of Earth in October 2552 [1].
He is first seen in a piece of gallery art in the Halo Graphic Novel, where he is depicted ducking to avoid a thrown Type-1 Antipersonnel Grenade, alongside two other Marines including L. P. B.
Name
He may be related to PFC Wallace A. Jenkins, a Marine who served in the Human-Covenant War and fought during the Battle of Harvest and the Battle of Installation 04. He may also be named after Leeroy Jenkins, a character from the popular MMORPG World of Warcraft. In the clip, Leeroy messes up a carefully planned strategy by charging straight into a room full of enemies while shouting his name, resulting in his raid party getting killed within seconds. Also, the videogame Mass effect has a character called Richard L. Jenkins, likely another reference to Leeroy Jenkins.
