James Ackerson: Difference between revisions

Line 62:

He was arrogant and condescending to most other people in ONI, even top-ranking brass such as [[Major General]] [[Nicolas Strauss]]. He frequently belittled and mocked Dr. Halsey and the SPARTAN-IIs and was very open with his views on them even in formal meetings. Ackerson openly ridiculed even [[John-117]] during the Spartan's debriefing concerning the [[Battle of Sigma Octanus IV]] in [[Camp Hathcock]].<ref>'''Halo: The Fall of Reach''', ''page 224''</ref> This attitude ultimately provoked the ire of [[Terrence Hood|Fleet Admiral Hood]], who harshly rebuked him for his disparaging remarks about Halsey and her Spartans during the Security Council's debriefing of [[Wagner|Lieutenant Wagner]].<ref>'''Halo: First Strike''', ''page 104''</ref><ref group="note">Coupled with his previous evasion of reassignment to frontline duty, it is possible that Ackerson's irreverent behavior during Lieutenant Wagner's debriefing in ''Halo: First Strike'' contributed to him losing his seat on the Security Council, particularly in light of Lord Hood's reaction to the colonel's comments.</ref>

However, Ackerson was not completely unsympathetic. When he was captured by the Covenant, he created a story to mislead the Covenant in an attempt to save his brother's life, which led to the Covenant capturing Cleveland instead of outright destroying it.
