As such, he had chosen his former team he was in during Hyland Naval Academia, and many others for the crew. 
====Colony Transport & Cargo Supply====
Before James is to become a warfare-type captain, he commands a large Phoenix-Class Colony Ship, mainly transportation families and supplies to well established colonies on various planets around the Milky Way. He fairly became will known due to the size of the vessel he commands. The UNSC Odysseus was 2.5 kilometers (8,500 ft). It was also one of the more heavily armored vessels, with highly-dense Vibranium alloy, and some of Adamantium alloy, the UNSC Odysseus is among the toughest starships in the UNSC Navy.
When he was heading to the planet of Harvest, Odysseus was assaulted by a unidentified starship, causing it to enter "combat-mode". Due to the ship having low combat capabilities, was forced to enter warp space and return to Earth and later re-purposed for naval combat operations, and ground support.
====Great War====
During the Great War, James Cook had showed much valor and tactical ingenuity. Over the course of the war, he had been in many naval combat operations on various of planets across the 20 years. He returned to Harvest in 2532 to retake the planet from the opposing force known as the Covenant. Sending down troops, and even ODSTs, he had achieve galaxy fame for his tactical ideologies on naval and ground forces, allowing the Operation: Retake Harvest to be achieved, and the first major victory for mankind. In 2540, the Odysseus was tracking down a Covenant starcraft when it left Harvest, and went to the planet Arcadia, and eventually to unknown unidentified planet where the Battle of Odysseus took place when they, by unknown force was pulled into the planet itself, and had to combat against unidentified A.I constructs.
Now within a planet of a advance technological civilization, James had ordered his crew and troops to enter battle stations when he see a Covenant battle starship. During the entire battle between ships, James was able to have SPARTAN Red Team to infiltrate the ship and had its thrusters and power core destroyed, making it fall onto the surface of the inside of the planet. 
Ordering for a command base on the surface, Red Team along with Marines established ground base, and with the Scout Unit Bravo scouting the area, discovered a scientist, Miranda Smith, who was then taken to Odysseus to the bridge. She informs him on the matter, and that the technology was made by the Praecursor, and this is a Shield World to act as a safe haven against a galactic super-weapon called "Halo". However, she also said a fleet advance tech was here, and the Covenant leader is trying to gain access to them to use against Humanity. Now knowing the threat, he orders his men to destroy the the vessel, and use the Magnetic Accelerator Cannon on them. However, considered indestructible, Miranda said that the Hyperdrive Reactor can cause the planet in the planet to go supernova. However, the weakness is that the ship will lose all form so hyper-travel capability. But his duty to preserve humanity overpowers their own, he was able not only motivate the perform the mission, but gave them "hope" that they will return home.
Sending in Red Team, and ODSTs, they were able to get the reactor to the location to cause the planet to go supernova, and with the sacrifice of 3 ODSTs and one SPARTAN, they are able to destroy the planet, and escape it as well.
====Aftermath====
With no Hyperdrive Reactor, James orders all of his crew, and civilian personal to enter Cyro-stasis for the fact it be a long time for them to be found. The A.I then released a distress beacon, and he to enters Cyro-stasis.
====Awakened====
After more then 29 years been by, James is then awakened by his A.I. to discover a peculiar situation.
This continues into the role, to which follows the story of the Odysseus RP.
===Personality & Traits===
During his life, he is seen as a highly exceptional officer in suppressing his emotions and personal ideological goals. Being a naval officer, he is a "semi-strict" captain of the UNSC Odysseus up to his reawakening. In the sense of duty, he his willing to send troops for missions. However, he does have one flaw. He hates sending troops and soldiers to their deaths for no reason. As such, when a soldier dies, and the mission fails, he enters a sadden state. Not depression, but close to it. Of course, able to overcome his grief, he always honors the soldiers that dies under his command. This earned him the respect of many officers, marines and even greater political leaders, due to the fact he remember those who fell before him. It has been stated once, when he was on the ground, he endured great pain of being struck by plasma fire just to carry a body of a fallen marine, so the marine who was female to be given a proper ceremonial funeral on Odysseus, as she was one of the ship's most brightest marine.
