'''Admiral Roland Freemont''' ([[service number]] '''00745-16778-HS''')<ref name="for">'''Halo: The Fall of Reach (2001)''', ''page 289'', '''(Definitive Edition)''', ''chapter 32''</ref> was the [[FLEETCOM Sector One]] [[commanding officer]]. He was in charge of the defense of the [[Epsilon Eridani system]] in [[2552]].<ref>'''Halo: The Fall of Reach Definitive Edition''', ''page 335''</ref>


== Background ==
==Biography==
In 2552, when the [[Covenant]] attacked Reach, Freemont sent a signal to all UNSC ships in the Epsilon Eridani system,{{Ref/Note|Tantalus and Jericho were originally mentioned in the 2001 version of ''Halo: The Fall of Reach''. However, the ''2011 Definitive Edition'' removes the mention of Jericho and Tantalus.}} demanding an immediate recall of all vessels to Reach, due to a [[Fleet of Particular Justice|fleet]] of 314 Covenant vessels entering the system. He was supposedly [[Killed in action|KIA]] when the Covenant destroyed [[Fleet Command Headquarters|FLEETCOM HQ]]. He also ordered the [[Cole Protocol]] to be issued immediately for all vessels and stations in the area before his assumed death.{{Ref/Reuse|for}}


In [[2552]], when the [[Covenant]] attacked, he sent a signal to all of these systems demanding immediate recall of all vessels to Reach because a fleet of some 300 Covenant vessels had entered the system. He was presumed killed when the Covenant destroyed FLEETCOM HQ. He also ordered the [[Cole Protocol]] to be issued immediately for all vessels and stations in the area.<ref>[[The Fall of Reach]] page 289</ref>
During the battle of Reach, Admiral Freemont was in command of the [[Epsilon Eridani Fleet]], the largest UNSC fleet outside of [[Sol system|Sol]], consisting of more than 150 ships and 20 orbital [[Orbital defense platform|Mark V MAC stations]]. During the battle, Freemont copied tactics used by [[Vice Admiral]] [[Michael Stanforth]] and organized his ship to fire in staggered salvos and used [[refit station]]s as sacrificial shields.
