Lieutenant[2] "Doc" Valdez was a corpsman assigned to the UNSC Pillar of Autumn and its contingent of Marine Shock Troops.[1]
Biography
Valdez was among the ODSTs who evacuated aboard the Pillar of Autumn and escaped the Battle of Reach. On September 6, 2552, Valdez, known for his voracious appetite, ate an entire Aleutian Nightcrab cooked by Suzuki, much to the disbelief of Marcus Hudson. This left him on sick leave the next day, as confirmed by Antonio Silva, proving his feat to Hudson.[2]
When the Pillar of Autumn found itself at Installation 04, Valdez persisted in his duties tending the wounded and dead even as the Covenant began to board the ship. As the fight progressed he, together with the remaining ODSTs, sought to defend the engine room where his medical skills were used to treat First Lieutenant Melissa McKay for a plasma burn on her arm.[1]
Valdez' fate is unknown as is whether he died aboard the Pillar of Autumn or evacuated to the surface of the Installation, as he is not mentioned afterward. His death is confirmed when either the captured Truth and Reconciliation was destroyed or when John-117 destroyed Halo.
