Joshua was conscripted into the SPARTAN-II program in 2517 when he was identified by [[Dr. Catherine Halsey]] at age six as a physically and mentally exceptional child. He was brought to [[Reach]] and trained by [[Deja]] and [[Chief Petty Officer Mendez]] alongside the other Spartans.

Joshua was never actually mentioned by name until [[The Battle of Sigma Octanus IV]]. He was designated as Red-One and led a team of Spartans along the coast of a continent on [[Sigma Octanus IV]], in order to recon the wharfs around [[Côte d'Azur]] in preparation for a strike on the [[Covenant]] held city with a [[HAVOK Nuclear Warhead]]. His team was sucessful, and they subsequently retreated to the [[Pelican]] for dustoff with no casualties, and no injuries, as the entire city, and tens of thousands of Covenant within it, were vaporized in the nuclear blast.

Joshua was then on the ''[[Pillar of Autumn|UNSC Pillar of Autumn]]'' briefly until Covenant forces appeared above Reach. During [[The Battle of Reach]], Joshua was assigned to Fred's team and designated as Red-Two. As he and Fred descended to the surface of Reach, their Pelican, [[Bravo 001]], was shot down. Joshua attempted to activate the auto pilot of the Pelican, but all of its computer systems had been destroyed. Joshua was, however, able to slow the vessel down enough so that the Spartans could make a "hard landing"; or jump out of the Pelican and land directly on the ground.
