During the [[Battle of Earth]] in [[2552#October|October 20, 2552]], Dutch was stationed aboard the {{UNSCShip|Say My Name}} as a part of the squad] led by [[Gunnery Sergeant]] [[Edward Buck]] and the larger ODST force that was to be dropped from orbit right onto the [[Prophet of Regret]]'s [[Regret's assault carrier|assault carrier]] stationed over the city of [[New Mombasa]]. Coincidentally, the squad was chosen by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence|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 [[Assault Carrier|Carrier]]. However, Dutch could barely hear her new orders, and didn't adjust his pod soon enough.<ref>'''Halo 3: ODST''', level ''[[Prepare To Drop (level)|Prepare To Drop]]''</ref>

Before the ODSTs hit the ground, the assault carrier initiated [[Slipspace]] transition over the city, generating a massive [[Electromagnetic Pulse|EMP]] wave, disabling the pods' electronic systems. The squad's pods were scattered around the city, with no clear idea of their mission or their squadmates' whereabouts. Dutch's pod landed on the outskirts of the [[Uplift Nature Reserve]]. 30 minutes after the drop, he moved out and made his way up to a clearing where a battle was taking place, between Covenant infantry and armor, against a platoon of Marines with three [[Warthog]]s, one of them turned over, and under fire from Covenant infantry. With his help, they secured the Warthog and defeated the Covenant forces in the area and started a Warthog charge against the enemy. After the area was cleared, Dutch and the other Marines made contact with the [[Unnamed UNSC Colonel|Colonel]] in charge, who ordered them to [[Second Platoon (Halo 3: ODST)|Second Platoon]]'s location, which were taking heavy fire and needed assistance.

They made their way to [[Kikowani Station]] intending to take the train out of the city, only to find the tunnels flooded. Buck decided to steal a Phantom, he had Dutch wait there with Romeo as they attempted to secure it. Once Mickey took control, he picked up Dutch and Romeo, Dutch manned one of the Phantom's plasma turrets. During their fight through the station they encountered a Scarab. The squad finally makes it out of the station, but Buck realizes where [[Captain (Navy)|Capt.]] Dare might be, he had the squad go back into the city, where Dutch, along with Mickey and Romeo waited with the Phantom at a safe location, to pick up Buck at a later time.

When Dutch and the squad arrived at Buck's location later that day, it was under fire from two [[Wraith]]s on the highway, which Dutch, Mickey and Romeo took out with the Phantom. Dutch along with the rest of the squad finally evacuated the city as the Covenant fleet began to glass it. Dutch was last seen a month later on an ONI Orbital Facility, with the rest of the squad guarding the [[Huragok]] known as [[Vergil]] holding the Superintendent's data, he then watched as [[Avery Junior Johnson|Sgt. Johnson]] interrogated the Huragok, about what the Covenant had uncovered in New Mombasa.<ref>'''Halo 3: ODST''' level, ''[[Coastal Highway (level)|Coastal Highway]]''</ref>
