Biography
Second Lieutenant Dalu was a UNSC Marine and ODST stationed aboard the Pillar of Autumn in 2552. Second Lieutenant Dalu was under the command of First Lieutenant Melissa McKay and headed one of her platoons of soldiers. When the vessel was attacked over Installation 04, he, with the rest of his men, made the jump to the surface aboard a Human Entry Vehicle (While this was not said in the book, it is likely to assume, due to the fact that all ODST's used HEV's to go to the surface of the Alpha Halo).

Being only a decent Lieutenant, he was replaced by Master Sergeant Lister to command his former platoon and was instead given charge of gathering weapons and technology.

A soldier who felt a strong bond to the men under his command, Dalu was a commanding officer at Alpha Base and oversaw supply numbers as well as combat. He oversaw Shade Turret placement around the base, too. He survived the Battle of Installation 04 up until the ODSTs took over the Truth and Reconciliation but was killed soon after when the control conduit was severed by McKay.
