Before you drop in feet first into Covenant occupied New Mombasa, you should get to know the men and woman you’ll be fighting alongside. They aren’t supersoldiers, but they’re the next best thing. To help you get acquainted, we’ve got each trooper's military dossier on hand.  In turn, the Halo 3: ODST Field Guide has also been updated to include this new intelligence and more.



BUCK
Full name: BUCK, Edward
Blood type: O-
Height: 188cm
Weight: 89kg


Rating: Gunnery Sergeant (GySgt/E7)
Unit: [classified]
Service number: 92458-37017-EB
Enlistment date: 12/05/2528
Location: Karnak, Lombard, Draco III

Born: New Albany, Lombard, Draco III
Gender: M
Citizen: Draconian
Age: 42 –(b. 08/22/2510)
Occupation: Student


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 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.





DUTCH
Full name: MILES, Taylor H.
Blood type: B+
Height: 190cm
Weight: 91kg


Rating: Corporal (Cpl/E4)
Unit: [classified]
Service number: 21175-12121-TM
Enlistment date: 09/09/2540
Location: Paris Island, New Paris, Mars


Born: Losantiville, Seven Hills, Mars
Gender: M
Citizen: Martian
Age: 33 –(b. 06/03/2519)
Occupation: Road train driver


Dutch’s former life as a road-train driver on Mars did well to prepare him for the arduous tasks of a heavy weapons specialist and driver in the ODSTs. Behind the death’s head rictus, jolly roger, and layer upon layer of black and gray armor is a man of deep spiritual convictions and respect for those he serves alongside.





ROMEO
Full name: AGU, Kojo
Blood type: AB-
Height: 190cm
Weight: 91kg


Rating: Lance Corporal (LCpl/E3)
Unit: [classified]
Service number: 14606-85099-KA
Enlistment date: 03/12/2541 (MM)
Location: Castra arcology, Castra, Madrigal


Born: Castra arcology, Castra, Madrigal
Gender: M
Citizen: Madrigali
Age: 28 –(b. 06/12/2524)
Occupation: Merchant Marine


Romeo sees his true vocation as a ladies’ man. But just because he’s a lover doesn’t mean he can’t be a fighter—and a damned fine one at that. He keeps his gear clean, his suit looking sharp, and his body lean and strong. He may not be a shining example of the UNSC off the battlefield, but on it he is a consummate combatant.




MICKEY

Blood type: A-
Height: 184cm
Weight: 85kg


Rating: Private First Class (PFC/E2)
Unit: [classified]
Service number: 51033-15973-MC

Location: Crisium City, Naniwa, Luna


Born: Crisium City, Naniwa, Luna
Gender: M
Citizen: Lunar
Age: 22 –(b. 10/20/2530)
Occupation: Student


Mickey LOVES being an ODST. More than he did being a pilot. More than he did being a crew chief on a Pelican gunship. He is no stranger to battle and has a fair number of notches in his belt, but he is unique amongst his ODST brothers in that he has never seen absolute ruination visited upon a human colony-world by the Covenant.
