Due to the shortage of officers in the surviving units, Lister was chosen to be the leader of [[Platoon|Second Platoon]], replacing Second Lieutenant [[Dalu]], who had been reassigned as the supply officer of [[Alpha Base (Installation 04)|Alpha Base]].<ref>'''[[Halo: The Flood]]''', page 148</ref> He was every bit as in charge as the other officers of the [[company]], such as Second Lieutenant [[Oros]].

He headed a column of four [[M808B Main Battle Tank|Scorpion tanks]] during the supply convoy from the ''Autumn'' to Alpha Base. He later assisted in the defense of that base from the infiltration of [[Zuka 'Zamamee]]'s group of [[SpecOps Standard Sangheili|SpecOps Elites]] aboard [[Charlie 217]].

When the [[Flood]] attacked, he stood too close to a [[Flood Carrier Form|Carrier Form]] and was "knocked on his can" by the explosion, according to McKay.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Flood]]''', page 271</ref> It is then referenced that he had a very tough personality and physical structure, as "the Marines like[d] the sound of something that could put Lister off his feet".

He survived until the ODSTs took over the ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]''. He, along with all other UNSC personnel on board, died when McKay, at the urging of the partially infected [[Wallace A. Jenkins|Private Jenkins]], severed the fiber optic cable linking the controls to the engines of the vessel, destroying the ship.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Flood]]''', page 332</ref>
