Keyes was often quite officious and put the safety of the UNSC before his own personal safety, even going as far as to almost self destruct the ship he was on so that the Covenant wouldn't find Earth. He was prepared and willing to give anything for his planet. He would often [[Keyes Loop|charge headlong into battle]] keeping a straight and calm face, along with an underlying strategy. Keyes was also known to be fearless in most situations, as he refused to tell [[Zuka 'Zamamee]] about [[John-117]], and even dared the [[Sangheili]] to kill him. | Keyes was often quite officious and put the safety of the UNSC before his own personal safety, even going as far as to almost self destruct the ship he was on so that the Covenant wouldn't find Earth.

As a captain, Keyes expected the best from his Marines and ensured to maintain their morale when facing a hopeless defeat. He silenced one Marine for panicking when there was no available escape route in the ''Truth and Reconciliation'' and angrily ordered Private Mendoza to resume his position when the latter was attempting to flee from their first encounter of the Flood. | As a captain, Keyes expected the best from his Marines and ensured to maintain their morale when facing a hopeless defeat.

Jacob Keyes was very caring to those under his command and attempted to be a strong fatherly figure to his daughter, [[Miranda Keyes|Miranda]], knowing that she had limited time with both of her parents. Although he did not prefer teaching at the [[Luna OCS Academy]], he was glad that he was able to spend time with Miranda. Upon being offered a position aboard the {{UNSCShip|Midsummer Night}}, he was hard-pressed about leaving his daughter alone on [[Luna]], but believed that he would be protecting her by fighting [[Insurrectionist]]s and the [[Covenant]].<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 36''</ref> Although they were not particularly close, Miranda aspired to be like him, even taking his last name, and joined the [[UNSC Navy]] to serve with him.<ref name="name"/> | Jacob Keyes was very caring to those under his command and attempted to be a strong fatherly figure to his daughter, [[Miranda Keyes|Miranda]], knowing that she had limited time with both of her parents.
