'''Lament for Pvt. Jenkins''' is a song included in the [[Halo: Original Soundtrack]].
This song is the audio played after the [[Master Chief]] watches the video feed from Jenkins' helmet. The name is clearly derived from the Chief's witnessing the [[Flood|horrible fate]] of [[Jenkins]], [[Bisenti]], [[Mendoza]] and the rest of [[Johnson]]'s squad. The piece is a tense, moody ambient song by string orchestra. The piece opens with a dark, powerful drumbeat, followed by an apprehensive minor chord. Every [[List_of_%22Seven%22_References_in_Halo|seven]] seconds, the drum sounds again, punctuating a change in the chord. The song becomes increasingly disjointed towards the end, featuring the scrambled high notes typical of the Flood, and slowly fades out, leaving a dark air to the scene.
