 * Looking for the other ODST character? See: "Snaky" Jones

Jones was a UNSC Marine and Orbital Drop Shock Trooper stationed at Earth in 2552. He was probably part of the 7th Orbital Drop Shock Trooper Division.

During the First Battle of Earth, his squad was dispatched from the UNSC In Amber Clad from Cairo Station to relieve the ground forces. Shortly after deployment, their Pelican was shot down over Old Mombasa by a Scarab walker. He survived the crash, but his squad was soon attacked by a Covenant patrol. When the squad was pinned down by a Jackal sniper, Jones, as the squad's own sniper, neutralized the Jackal with his "welcome-to-Earth gift basket", causing the majority of the other Covenant to flee the area. A camouflaged Elite then sneaked up on the squad and took Jones hostage with an Energy Sword. One of his squad-mates, wielding an overcharged plasma pistol from a grunt, killed the alien, along with stacker using his battle rifle, and freed him. His subsequent fate is unknown, although it is probable that he was killed by the destruction of Mombasa at the hands of the Prophet of Regret or he escaped.
