Born on one of the three [[Southwest Trinity worlds]], Scooter Barnes was one of the generally cantankerous and highly individualistic members who made up the Scout Platoon that operated as a part of the [[17th Recon Regiment|Seventeenth Recon Regiment]], also known as [[Camacho's Caballeros]].

Scooter operated as the shooter in a three-person sniper team within the scout platoon, accompanied into battle by a spotter and security person and wielding a [[Zeus Heavy Rifle|Zeus sniper rifle]].<ref name="CQp169">''Close Quarters'', p. 169, "Chapter 34"</ref> On the 2nd of November [[3056]], the Seventeenth Recon were battling the [[9th Ghost|Ninth Ghost]] [[regiment]] in Masamori, the capital city of [[Hachiman (system)|Hachiman]], as a result of orders from the [[Internal Security Force]], who believed that the Seventeenth's client, [[Chandrasekhar Kurita]], was betraying the [[Draconis Combine]] to the [[Clans]]. Barnes and the other members of his sniper team were three of the fifteen volunteers who formed the squad led by Lieutenant [[Cassie Suthorn]] to penetrate the building occupied by [[Ninyu Kerai Indrahar]], the adoptive son of [[ISF]] chief [[Subhash Indrahar]] and senior ISF operative on Hachiman, and present him with (fabricated) evidence exonerating Chandrasekhar Kurita.
