Although Jonah escaped, his parents, brothers and sisters were all killed.{{Ref/Reuse|p178}} He would become one of the 418 candidates recruited by [[ONI]] for training as part of [[Spartan-III]] [[Spartan-III Beta Company|Beta Company]]. During his training under [[Lieutenant Commander]] [[Kurt Ambrose]], Jonah-B283 was found to be particularly proficient in combat.

The Sangheili in charge grabbed Jonah, dislocating his shoulder, using his energy sword to slowly slice a gash into Jonah's faceplate, destroying his eye in the process. Another Sangheili grabbed Jonah by the neck, but not before Jonah declared that his life for the six Sangheili' was a fair trade. He then released his finger from the detonator, activating the explosives. Jonah, the Sangheili, and the Covenant camp were all vaporized.<ref>'''Halo: Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe''', "Headhunters", ''pages 191-192''</ref>
