===Marine career===
Despite the length of his service in the Marine Corps, Madsen's wartime career was rather undistinguished. Many members of his family were members of the Corps, including his father and grandfather, both of whom were generals. This led to several acts of nepotism, and after the war, ultimately earned Madsen a place in the SPARTAN-IV program, despite a lack of notable actions.

They were then transferred to the for deployment to the recently discovered Shield World Requiem.
