During the Battle for Earth, Stacker served in the [[7th ODST Battalion|7th Battalion]] of the [[105th ODST Division|105th Shock Division]]. He was dispatched from the In Amber Clad under the command of Sergeant Major Johnson, leading a squad of ODSTs in a [[D77-TC Pelican|Pelican]]. Upon entering a section of the city under heavy assault by the Covenant, Stacker's Pelican was shot down by a [[Protos-pattern Scarab|Scarab]] over [[Old Mombasa]] and crashed landed on an open beach near [[Hotel Zanzibar]], killing the pilots and [[O'Brien (Mombasa)|one of Stacker's squad]]. The surviving four ODSTs were immediately engaged by a Covenant patrol led by a [[Sangheili]] [[Special Operations Sangheili|Special Operations]]. During the brief assault, the Sangheili held [[Walpole|one of his troopers]] hostage momentarily before Stacker shot the Sangheili in the head.{{Ref/Reuse|H2-ADatB}}

Stacker and his squad then holed up in the nearby Hotel Zanzibar, following the instructions of UNSC [[Artificial intelligence|AI]] [[Cortana]] while Spartan John-117 cleared a path to them. They were soon attacked by another group of Covenant infantry, and were pinned down in the hotel's lobby by a [[Type-42 plasma cannon|plasma cannon]] by the time John-117 arrived. Stacker then assisted the Chief in clearing the nearby beaches and tunnels of Covenant.<ref name="H2-Outskirts">''Halo 2'', campaign level ''[[Outskirts]]''</ref>

Later in the battle, Stacker once again crossed paths with John-117 in [[New Mombasa]]. Caught alone behind enemy lines, Stacker was driving a [[Gauss Warthog]] through a Covenant-filled park when he encountered the Chief and a squad of Marines emerging from the nearby tunnels. He suggested the SPARTAN-II commandeer the [[M68 Gauss Cannon|Gauss cannon]], and assisted him in liberating the nearby Marine command post, which was under the bombardment of several [[Type-26 Wraith|Wraiths]], reinforced by waves of [[Type-32 Ghost|Ghosts]]. Clearing out the attacking Covenant, they reached the command post, where Stacker remained as John-117 lead survivor Sergeant [[Banks]] and a squad of marines in pursuit of the Scarab walker.<ref name="H2-metropolis">''Halo 2'', campaign level ''[[Metropolis]]''</ref>
