Bisenti

"Covenant Dropship, roll out the welcome mat!"

- Private Bisenti, during the regrouping of Marines on Alpha Halo

Private Bisenti was a UNSC Marine Infantryman assigned to the.

Fall of Reach
During the Fall of Reach, he was one of the Marines aboard Station Gamma, above Reach.

Private Bisenti, along with Staff Sergeant Avery J. Johnson, Private First Class Wallace A. Jenkins, and Private O'Brien, were fighting a group of Jackals when MCPO John-117 and Petty Officer Linda-058 boarded the station to destroy the logs of the prowler. Bisenti and his team were evacuated from the station, and flown back to the UNSC Pillar of Autumn. Bisenti's squad was among those to escape the attack on Reach.

Battle of Installation 04
Bisenti later landed in the same Bumblebee life pod as Staff Sergeant Johnson did on Installation 04, and was one of the first to see John-117 after the evacuation of the Pillar of Autumn.

Bisenti then returned to Alpha Base with his squad, and they later traveled to what they thought was a Covenant weapons cache, which was uncovered by a captured Sangheili named 'Qualomee. It turned out that the cache that 'Qualomee mentioned was actually one of the Flood Containment Facilities. Bisenti took point when the squad entered the Flood Containment Facilities. He asked "what is that" after the first Infection Forms appeared. Bisenti helped pull off one of the infection forms that had attacked Pvt. Riley but the infection forms eventually overwhelmed them.

He is presumed dead either from the Flood's attack or when SPARTAN-117 destabilized the Pillar of Autumn's fusion engine core, causing a detonation that ripped Installation 04 apart. He was never found but could have escaped leaving him listed MIA.
