Lament for Pvt. Jenkins

Lament for Pvt. Jenkins is the twelfth piece included in the Halo: Original Soundtrack.

Overview
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 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.

Appearances
It can be heard:
 * In the level The Silent Cartographer, when Bravo 022 gives a Mayday call.
 * During the cutscene in 343 Guilty Spark where John-117 watches the video feed from Jenkins' helmet.
 * In the beginning of Halo: Last One Standing of the Halo: Landfall series, when T. Rymann deviates from the mission's original course to find a medic for the injured S. Hartley.
 * It can be heard for a second time in 343 Guilty Spark if the player tries to take the elevator they used to enter the containment facility.
 * In Keyes, it is heard when John-117 enters the Truth and Reconciliation’s bridge, and discovers the flood-infected Captain Keyes

Trivia
The name is clearly derived from the Chief witnessing the horrible fates of Jenkins, Bisenti, Mendoza and the rest of Johnson's squad.
