McKenzie (Marine)

One of the Marines stationed at Diego Garcia, McKenzie was from the 405th Marine Infantry Division. He, along with Sergeant Banks and Corporal Perez, were sent to New Mombasa during The First Battle of Earth. While there, they met up with the Master Chief and with his help, the marines trapped and destroyed a Scarab walker.

McKenzie was then evacuated with the Chief and they traveled to Installation 05 aboard the UNSC In Amber Clad. He traveled with Perez, Sergeant Major Johnson, and Commander Miranda Keyes to the Library to retrieve the Index, however just before Miranda and Johnson were ambushed by the Arbiter, Johnson lost contact with McKenzie. Though it is suspected that that McKenzie and Perez were murdered by Flood infection forms. That is why their bodies were found on the ground dead.

Another possibility is that they were taken by Tartarus and his Brutes just Before the Arbiter ambushed Commander Miranda Keyes and Sergeant Johnson. Evidenced for this can be found on the Great Journey(Level) just before you encounter Johnson and the Scarab you help two marines about to be executed. These could be McKenzie and Perez.
