When the UNSC [[Cole Protocol]] was initiated, all data containing coordinates to [[Earth]] and other [[human colonies]] on the Rubble were destroyed, except one.

To find information about the ''Kestrel'', Delgado went to the bar [[Eddie's In The Rock]]. Delgado came across Adriana again, who was also attempting to find information about the ''Kestrel''. Five rebels overheard their conversation and approached them.

===Joining the Navy===
===Joining the Navy===
Soon after the battle and helping [[Exodus Project|Habitat Exodus]] and the Rubble's surviving population evacuate to the [[18 Scorpii system]], he made the decision to join the [[UNSC Navy]] after attending the funeral of his friend and former mentor, Diego Esquival on [[Falaknuma]]. Due to his background and attitude, the Navy recruiter was uninterested in Delgado, but [[Commander]] [[Hadley]] of [[ONI]] intervened on his behalf. Hadley promised that if Delgado didn't wash out, he would have a place on an ONI [[Prowler]] after he graduated. Delgado, after flipping Hadley off, officially signed on, stating that too many people would be pleased if he failed to even consider it.<ref name="HCP355" />

Delgado is known for being loyal, such as still attending his co-pilot's funeral when most of the attendants blamed him for the death. Additionally, when the Spartans of [[Gray Team]] asked for his assistance in locating the data chip, he initially refused, as he disliked the UNSC. However, he grew to trust the Spartans and other members of the UNSC.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 308''</ref> When the Rubble allied with some [[Kig-Yar]], Delgado did not trust the aliens.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 73''</ref>

Despite being close to [[Diego Esquival]], he still felt awkward due to his parents' views toward people like Diego (a known Insurrectionist), who used to plant bombs in passenger ships and engage in other rebel activity for money, which his parents called "blood money".<ref name="cp45"/>

*In ''The Cole Protocol'', it states that he was fourteen when Madrigal was glassed in [[2528]], implying he was born in 2514.<ref name="cp41"/> However, if his birthday was later in the year, ''after'' Madrigal was glassed, then he would have turned fifteen in 2528, thus he would have been born in [[2513]].

*Delgado, as well as most of the residents of The Rubble are likely of Spanish origin. This may be due to most of the Rubble residents having Hispanic names and partaking in Latin American customs such as the ''quincieñera''. This implies that most people that lived in the colony of Madrigal, as well as the Rubble, came from Spain or Latin American descent.
