Crespo's parents were [[Insurrectionist]]s who died wiring a bomb to a government building. He claimed that he never got to know them well because he was very young at the time. Despite this, his [[Neural marker|neural marker]] showed during an evaluation that he still had some fond memories of his parents, such as running into his mother's arms and seeing her smile while preparing a meal. He was placed in foster care, during which he studied subjects such as UNSC history and work productivity.<ref name="oni">'''[[Halo 3: ODST Pre-mission Evaluation]]''' ''- Mickey Interview''</ref>


Crespo signed up for UNSC service on [[2548#June|June 4, 2548]], as mandatory military service was a requirement for freedom from foster care. After the mandatory service, he had the chance to quit the military, but he decided to stay as he considered it home. He was a pilot and then Crew Chief on a [[Pelican]] [[dropship]] for sometime before becoming an ODST with the rank of [[Private First Class]]. Before the Battle of Earth, he had undergone [[extra-vehicular activity]] training and finished in the top of his class, as well as three [[Single Occupant Exoatmospheric Insertion Vehicle|HEV]] drops.<ref name="oni"/>
