==Biography==
===Battle of Installation 04===
His commander was [[First Lieutenant]] [[Melissa McKay]], and he headed one of her [[platoon]]s. When the vessel was attacked over [[Installation 04]], he, along with the rest of his men, made the jump to the surface aboard a [[Single Occupant Exoatmospheric Insertion Vehicle|Human Entry Vehicle]].
{{Main|Battle of Installation 04}}
Dalu was one of many ODSTs stationed on the ''Autumn'' in [[2552#August|August 2552]], when the ship was able to escape the [[Fall of Reach]] and emerge over [[Installation 04]]. Dalu was able to survive the [[Landing on Installation 04|ODST deployment]] onto the ring, and was ultimately picked to head up reinforcement deployments to the [[Raid on the Truth and Reconciliation|raid on the ''Truth and Reconciliation'']], serving as supply master for the mission. Each time ''[[Echo 419]]'' deployed a fresh wave of Marines into the fighting, Dalu and his team served to scavenge the battlefield for armaments, coordinating the collection of [[Covenant]] arms including [[Type-25 plasma pistol|plasma pistols]], [[Okarda'phaa-pattern plasma rifle|plasma rifles]], [[Type-33 needler|needlers]], power packs, communications equipment, hand tools and even food. In total, Dalu's party were able to make off with six {{Pattern|Mamua'uda|Shade}} turrets for use in reinforcing [[Alpha Base (Installation 04)|Alpha Base]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=TF4|HTF|Chapter=4}}


While Dalu served as a supply officer for the attack on the ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]'', McKay was forced to promote [[Master Sergeant]] [[Lister (Marine)|Lister]] to take Dalu's command of 2nd Platoon for her [[Raid on the Pillar of Autumn|raid on]] on the ''Pillar of Autumn''{{'}}s crash site.{{Ref/Reuse|TF4}} Dalu's fate following September 19 is unknown, though he was presumably killed with the destruction of Installation 04 on September 22, along with all other UNSC forces on the ring.
During the raid on the ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]'', he was in charge of gathering [[Covenant|enemy]] [[weapons]] and technology for research.<ref>'''Halo: The Flood''', ''page 108''</ref>
 
Dalu was a commanding officer at [[Alpha Base (Installation 04)|Alpha Base]] and oversaw supply operations, [[Shade]] Turret placement around the base, and combat. He survived the [[Battle of Installation 04]] until the ODSTs captured the ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]''; he and they were killed soon after, when McKay destroyed the ship to prevent the virulent [[The Flood|Flood]] from reaching Earth.<ref>'''Halo: The Flood''', ''page 116''</ref>
