Possible death
The name "Mat Kowalski" appears on the ONI Memorial at ONI Alpha Site in New Mombasa. This is possibly, though not definitely, referring to Kowalski. His death may have therefore occurred sometime before October 20, 2552. However, it should be noted that the memorial may not be entirely factual, as it contains names such as Margaret Parangosky, who is known to have survived despite being listed as dead, along with every other member of ONI named at the time of the release of Halo 3: ODST.
