'''Lance Corporal "Snaky" Jones''' was a [[UNSC]] [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marine]] and [[ODST]]. As a sharpshooter with the [[Helljumpers]], he bore a [[Sniper Rifle]] in combat. He was fond of candy bars.{{Ref/Novel|Id=TF6|TF|Chapter=6}}

Jones was one of the [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] stationed aboard the {{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} and was evacuated with the other personnel on board. Under the command of [[First Lieutenant]] [[Melissa McKay]], Jones joined a convoy that was ferrying supplies to [[Alpha Base (Installation 04)|Alpha Base]]. However, [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] ground forces under the command of [[Noga 'Putumee]] soon attacked the convoy using [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraiths]], [[Banshees]] and [[Type-32 Rapid Assault Vehicle|Ghosts]]. Jones was in the fourth [[M12 Force Application Vehicle|Warthog]] with [[Sergeant (UNSC)|Sergeant]] [[Corly]] when the vehicle was hit by a Plasma Mortar round from a [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraith]]. Corly was killed but Jones was thrown free.{{Ref/Reuse|TF6}} Once recovered, he discovered that his helmet (with his team mic) was missing; as a result, he could no longer call for a pickup as the supply convoy left him for dead. He retrieved his weapon and some supplies scavenged from the [[Pillar of Autumn]], and then followed his sniper training and climbed to some cover and an elevated firing position in the form of rocks.{{Ref/Reuse|TF6}}

Targets soon presented themselves in the forms of two [[Sangheili]], one being [[Sangheili Minor|Minor]] [[Ado 'Mortumee]] and the other being a Field Master, [[Noga 'Putumee]]. His first shot decapitated Ado 'Mortumee, but his second, aimed at 'Putumee, missed as the Field Master back-flipped for cover. The Covenant commander responded by calling down [[Banshees]] to locate and kill the [[human]].{{Ref/Reuse|TF6}} It is unknown if Jones was killed by the Banshees' attack run, made it back to Alpha Base or was killed by the Flood, or perhaps killed when [[John-117|Spartan-117]] detonated the ''Pillar of Autumn'''s engines and destroyed Halo. As such, his fate is unknown, but he is almost certainly dead.
