Young MACO []
This MACO was assigned to Enterprise during the Xindi mission in 2153.
In 2153, he was part of S. Money's MACO team which was sent to welcome the Xindi-Reptilian boarding party near an airlock. When the airlock was blown off, the team opened fire but had to withdraw. (ENT: "Rajiin")
The name patch on his left arm clearly reads "B. Scott".
When Captain Archer was under the influence of Xindi-Insectoids, he was working in a shuttle bay and shot unconscious by the senior staff who tried to retake Enterprise. Later, he served at the tactical station on the bridge. Hayes gave him a nod. He then moved toward the science station but was not there yet, having reached a position just outside the port turbolift doorway, when four Starfleet officers, including T'Pol and Malcolm Reed, invaded the bridge. He was shot unconscious again, this time by T'Pol. (ENT: "Hatchery")
This MACO was portrayed by stunt actor Justin Sundquist who received no credit for his appearances.
In the final draft script of "Hatchery", this officer was dispatched with a Vulcan martial arts maneuver executed by T'Pol, then disarmed by her, despite simply being shot by her instead on screen.
Sundquist also portrayed the mirror universe counterpart of this character.

For MACO casualties in the mirror universe, see either MACO personnel or mirror universe casualties.
Above are the only confirmed MACO casualties. There are numerous instances where a MACO is seen shot in one episode and apparently dies only to be seen in the next episode alive. Also, the name tags seen on MACO uniforms seem to switch at random, making an accurate count of KIAs impossible.

Background information[]
Almost all of the MACOs were portrayed by stunt performers or actors with a stage combat background or experiences.
Due to the re-use of costumes and name tags, several performers portrayed one character, for example E. Hamboyan, who was played by at least three actors.
Apocrypha[]
The complement of MACO on board Enterprise during the Xindi crisis is given as 36 in the novel Last Full Measure. Additional MACO named in this novel are Corporal Selma Guitierrez, Corporal McCammon, Corporal Meredith Peruzzi, and Private Colin Eby.
