- — from the Tsavo Highway cutscene
Fleet Admiral Sir Terrence Hood is the chairman of the HIGHCOM Security Committee and is the commanding officer of all UNSC Defense Forces in 2552. He commands the planet's defenses from ODA-142 Cairo Station.
Background
He greatly respects the Spartans, not only because of their record, but on two occasions they saved his life. Admiral Hood, alternatively known as "Lord Hood", is seen wearing The Medal of Honor, The Purple Heart, and The Navy and Marine Corps Medal along with a number of service ribbons and citations.
In October 2552, Admiral Hood presents the Master Chief, Sergeant Johnson, and Miranda Keyes with medals aboard the Cairo Station. Lord Hood was in overall command of The First Battle of Earth, when Prophet of Regret's fleet attacked Earth (this is made clear when he orders Fleet Admiral Harper to defend the Cairo, Athens, and Malta stations instead of attacking the Covenant ships directly).
During November 2, 2552, Admiral Hood gets a transmission from Doctor Catherine Halsey that is piggy-backed by Cortana's update to command and was requested to send Spartans to Onyx. Hood obliges by ordering SPARTANs 104, 058, and 043 to the planet.
Later, during The Second Battle of Earth, he is seen commanding the defense of Earth aboard the Cairo as he finds out that Master Chief is aboard the High Prophet of Truth's Forerunner flagship. He asks the Chief what he is doing and the Chief replies, "Sir,finishing this fight."[1]. Admiral Hood will appear in Halo 3, to guide Miranda Keyes in her Pelican.
Quotes
- "Green light, green light to engage!" - to Commander Keyes
- "Chief if we don't take out their boarding craft they'll just keep sending reinforcements." - said if the player is slow to progress through the Cairo Station level.
- "Master Chief. You mind telling me what you're doing on board that ship?" To Master Chief in the final cutscene.
- "Isolate that signal."
Trivia
- His Command Neural Interface port is clearly visible on the back of his head.
