Childhood
Marley grew up with his mother, who was a runaway, and he was born in Auckland NewZealand. His mother, was a Irish immigrant who'd moved to NZ, in search of a job. Marley had a reasonably average life, as his mother took up several jobs in order to look after herself and her son. When he became 11 he met his father for the first time, Jeff had enrolled in the army, and said he had never come after his son as he didn't know where they were, and that he didn't know if he'd see him much anymore, as he was put in the terrorist division, renowned for it's losses.

UNSC
Marley decided that he too would join the UNSC marines in order to see his father more. By this time his father was a leading figure in their division, when Marley enlisted as a private, Jeff did all he could to protect him, at one point taking a bullet meant for him by the Irish Mob.

Marley later became Lieutenant of Ido Regiment, and has had several battles with both Terrorists, rebels and Covenant.
