Jenkins' combat form followed a group of [[Flood]] to the surface where they attacked a group of [[ODST]]s under command of [[First Lieutenant]] [[Melissa McKay]]. Without complete control over his body, Jenkins, who was desperate to end his own life, attempted to get killed while assaulting the Lieutenant, but instead he was captured by the [[ODSTs]]. [[Major (UNSC)|Major]] [[Antonio Silva]] tried to interrogate him. While being interrogated, the [[infection form]] inside of Jenkins attempted to attack its interrogators by extending a tentacle ''through'' Jenkins' hand, snapping the bones and veins. As Jenkins described it, it was a "living hell". However, the infection form was knocked unconscious by the pain. This gave Jenkins the chance to reveal the imminent threat of the Flood beneath the base.<ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], page 275/276</ref>. Lieutenant McKay correctly interpreted this and ordered a squad to exterminate them. He was later taken to the ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]'' while the [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]] assaulted the ship. Jenkins, knowing that Silva planned to take the ship home to [[Earth]], overwhelmed the Infection form inside him and tried to destroy the ship because he knew that there were more [[Flood]] present aboard it and that they would inevitably escape and destroy [[Earth]]. He failed to do so, but [[Lieutenant McKay]], seeing the truth as well, destroyed the vessel for him. The destruction of the ''Truth and Reconciliation'' mercifully ended his suffering. <ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], page 332</ref> Before he died, he managed to mouth the words "Thank you" to the Lieutenant. | Jenkins' combat form followed a group of [[Flood]] to the surface where they attacked a group of [[ODST]]s under command of [[First Lieutenant]], [[Melissa McKay]].

*Though he was appointed a ''Sharpshooter'' in his platoon by Johnson in the events of Contact Harvest; in the Flood containment area in [[Halo: Combat Evolved]] he was seen wielding an [[MA5B]] instead of his favorable [[BR55 Battle Rifle]]. This is most likely because the only weapons that survived the Battle of Reach, were "standard Marine weapons" and the Battle Rifle was still not the main weapon used by Marines, so it would have been stored in special lockers, which were all destroyed along with the Spartans' weapons lockers during the Fall of Reach. It was also stated that they were prototypes in [[Contact Harvest]]. | *Though he was appointed a ''Sharpshooter'' in his platoon by Johnson in the events of Contact Harvest; in the Flood containment area in [[Halo: Combat Evolved]] he was seen wielding an [[MA5B]] instead of his favorable [[BR55 Battle Rifle]].
