I joined Halopedioa on October 10, 2005 as "Ed", but during Halopedia's transfer of domains in summer of 2006, I had to change that to "ED". I have been an administrator on this site since August 25, 2006. I also edit occasionally at Spanish Halopedia as well, but most of the time I am here. I am currently a freshmen at the Ohio University Scripps school of Journalism, majoring in news editing, as well as an MS-1 grade cadet in the US Army Reserve Officer's Training Corps.

I play Halo exclusively on the PC, and to that end, I own Halo: Combat Evolved PC and Halo 2 Vista. I also read the novels. My biggest contributions in the past have been purely big writing jobs, but I have had less time to do so lately. Much of my editing is devoted to copy-edits, controlling speculation, categorization of just about everything, and welcoming new users.

ED's background with the military

So you see, RR and a bunch of other people give a testament to my knowledge of the intricacies of the US Military. This is because I am an officer in training with the United States Army. Here is a real CSV for you:

OHIO-081^ST SQUADRON

I was a member of the Air Force Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps (AFJROTC) Ohio 81^st Cadet Squadron for my first two years of High School. I took four courses in JROTC: Aerospace Science I, Aerospace Science II, Advanced Drill and Ceremonies, and Summer Leadership School. I was also a member of four JROTC marching teams: Inspected Drill Routine (IDR), Armed Inspected Drill Routine, Saber Team, and Honor Guard, as well as the Kitty Hawk Air Society. I was assigned to second element, Delta Flight from 2004 until 2004, and first element, Charlie Flight from 2004 to 2005.

My experiences in JROTC were amazing, and include two weeks of rigorous training at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, commanding an honor guard in presenting the colors during the national anthem of a Cincinnati Reds baseball game, and flying on missions in a C-141 Starifter of the 445^th Airlift Wing and a KC-135 Stratotanker of the 121^st Air Refueling Wing. There are countless others.

When I left JROTC, I had a total of sixty four awards, including four medals and twenty ribbons. My rank was cadet Chief Master Sergeant.
