'Dee'

"'Well Lads what's the craic!!??'""- Dee to his squad of Marines aboard the UNSC Infinity "The Spartan-IV simply called 'Dee' by his peers, is Super Soldier serving aboard the UNSC Infinity''. ''He serves as a Fireteam leader to a group of Marines he had previously served with before volunteering for the SPARTAN program in 2554, two years after it's official beginning.

Early Life
'Dee' was born on Earth in Ireland in 2528, three years after the beginning of the Human-Covenant War. As such he grew up seeing the UNSC propaganda and news on the growing conflict; this sparked a need to do something in the young man rather early as he believed everyone should do their part to help others in the trying times.

At school 'Dee' would be seen as a charismatic person and a good leader to his friends when playing games. By the time he was 17 he knew he wanted to join the UNSC to join the fight against the Covenant.

Military Service
'Dee' would go onto join the Marines where, after reviewing his scores, he was placed as the second in command of his training group. Here he met two people who would become his friends: Mark and Doug. During boot camp the new Marine would excel at getting his team through hard times or situations- so much so he was offered the chance of being team leader during a Capture the Flag exercise. When the exam was over the then young Private had proven efficient with a win for his team; as such he graduated from basic within the top ten of his class, and would go on to serve across the systems.

'Dee' would be placed on a squad with seven other Marines, two of which being Mark and Doug who had successfully graduated. On their first deployment the team was stationed basic guard duty of UNSC assets. In late 2546 'Dee' along with his squad (now dubbed Present Squad) were stained on the human colony Sargasso to provide security when the Covenant attacked. During the conflict 'Dee' and Present Squad would see multiple waves of enemies, fending them off until Sargasso was back under human control completely.

In 2547 'Dee' as well as countless other people would bare witness to ONI Section Two's unveiling of the SPARTAN-II Program to boost moral; this would be especially helpful to 'Dee' who now seeing such larger-than-life fellow soldiers, believed that humanity truly had a chance at fighting back against the Covenant.

Following 2548, 'Dee' and Present Squad would fight in many battles including: the Second Fall of Arcadia (2549), the Siege of Paris IV (2549), the Fall of Reach (2552), the Battle for Earth immediately followed by the Battle for Installation 00 (2552). After years of service 'Dee' and Present Squad had received some much needed leave time from the UNSC where they would spend it abroad till eventually being stationed on the Infinity in 2553.

SPARTAN Program
In the year 2554 'Dee' was approached by Jun-A266 and offered a spot within the SPARTAN-IV Program based on his service and dedication to making sure everyone got out alive. Recalling the hope he got upon seeing the Spartans two generations before, he gave an immediate yes to the Spartan-III hoping he could inspire such emotions in fresh soldiers and civilians like they had done for him. After undergoing the procedure he described his new augmentations and MJOLNIR Armor as 'fitting like a glove'. He would be put in charge of Present Squad who all had received the same offer but rejected it. Now commanding his team he led them through both conflicts of Requiem in 2557, succeeding in his objectives and pulling people out alive as much as possible.

Later that same year 'Dee' would have his first interaction with Fireteam Erebus during the Unity Colony outbreak of the Flood. He and his squad would be present planet side just after the outbreak and helped Erebus in destroying the colonies main reactor, setting the whole thing to blow before a mass quarantine was put in effect on the system followed by an orbital bombardment of the planet.

In 2558, 'Dee' and his squad were back aboard the UNSC Infinity when the Created Conflict occurred. When it was clear the Infinity needed to retreat he went to the War Games simulations to announce for the Spartans as they trained to keep spirits high anyway he could.

Achievements
In his service 'Dee' saved countless numbers of lives- fellow Marines, Spartans, and civilians alike. This earned him the Legion of Honor decoration as well as the undying respect and loyalty from his peers.

While serving as an announcer for the War Games simulations he would bring a new feel to the Infinity, making the Games feel 'more alive again' as one Spartan put it after a mass battle simulation.
