During the [[Battle of Earth]] in [[2552#October|October 20, 2552]], Crespo was stationed aboard {{UNSCShip|Say My Name}} and was interviewed for the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] by Gunnery Sergeant [[Edward Buck]]<ref name="oni"/> and became part of his squad, [[Alpha-Nine]]. They were part of a larger detachment of the [[65th Shock Troops Division]]<ref name="lootcrate2">'''[[Halo Legendary Crate]]''', ''[[Halo Legendary Crate/Data Drops|Data Drop #2]]''</ref> tasked with [[Operation: BUMRUSH|assaulting]] the [[Prophet of Regret]]'s flagship, ''[[Solemn Penance]]'', from orbit over [[New Mombasa]].<ref>[http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/intel/related/video/into-hell-1/6c327f74-5bc0-43c4-ac92-0feef4a712b0 '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Into Hell 1'' (defunct)]</ref> Unknown to Crespo, the squad had been chosen by the ONI operative [[Veronica Dare]] to partake on a classified mission, which was not revealed to the squad members until in mid-drop, when Dare ordered the squad to adjust their [[Single Occupant Exoatmospheric Insertion Vehicle|drop pods]]' trajectories away from the [[CAS-class assault carrier|Covenant carrier]]. Crespo's drop pod was caught though in the [[Electromagnetic pulse|EMP]] blast from the retreating flagship. It lost power and slammed into the Rookie's pod, cracking the window and causing him and the Rookie to land farther away from the squad. | During the [[Battle of Earth]] in [[2552#October|October 20, 2552]], Crespo was stationed aboard {{UNSCShip|Say My Name}} and was interviewed for the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] by Gunnery Sergeant [[Edward Buck]]<ref name="oni"/> and became part of his squad, [[Alpha-Nine]].

Later that day, Crespo stumbled upon several retreating Marines. He helped them fight through to their rally point with a Scorpion tank near the entrance of the ONI Alpha Site, which allowed him to rejoin with [[Taylor Miles]] and aid other Marines. After defending the area, both ODSTs met up with a desperate [[NMPD]] officer. In response, they defended the [[ONI Alpha Site (location)|ONI Alpha Site]] complex with several other officers and Marines.<ref>'''[[Halo 3: ODST]]''', campaign level, ''[[ | Later that day, Crespo stumbled upon several retreating Marines.

Sure enough after a few waves they fell back to the roof on an elevator, where Crespo told the last remaining officer to link the charges to him, saying "If anyone's gonna blow this place, it's gonna be me." Once on the roof they evacuated on an NMPD [[D77C-NMPD Pelican|Pelican]], where they finally made contact with Buck, who was at NMPD Headquarters. | ||
