==Biography==
===Childhood and early career===
Born in 2523 (September 2, 2523), Joel Presley lived his early life on Eridanus II. In late 2532 (December 27, 2532), Joel began training with the rest of the Spartan-IIIs at Camp Currahee on Onyx, instructed by Lieutenant Commander Kurt Ambrose. He later graduated as Joel-A242 (October 14, 2536), and before deployment, was hand selected by Kurt to be a part of an elite fireteam. He was put in a fireteam with Jack-A093, Clayton-A450, Hank-A398, and Mitchell-A187.
They are subsequently transferred under UNICOM's operational authority as part of an arrangement to secure Army support for the SPARTAN program within HIGHCOM. They are placed in the new Special Warfare Group Five, designated 'Fireteam Midnight.'
===Later career===
The following year (December 23, 2537), the fireteam takes out an Elite Zealot in the Battle of New Constantinople. In 2539 (May 19, 2539), the fireteams takes part in the fight for the planet Kholo. There, they help a fireteam of marines: Fireteam Tango, to survive in a firefight. They are later evacuated as the planet falls (May 20, 2539).
In 2543 (October 9, 2543), Spartans Frank-B252, Thea-B401, Harry-B134 and Amy-B045 are put into Fireteam Midnight.
Fireteam Midnight is issued with Mjolnir Mark V armour (November 24, 2551).
===Fall or Reach===
During the Siege of New Alexandria (August 21, 2552), they are engaged by Unseen Kill while sweeping a building for Covenant forces. The resulting fight is a slaughter as every member apart from Clayton-A450 is killed by the ruthless Elites.
