Private First Class Jenette Vasquez was a Smartgun operator with the United States Colonial Marine Corps, part of 2nd Battalion Bravo Team. She was the sister of Carmen Vasquez. Jenette was a member of the combat unit deployed to LV-426 aboard the USS Sulaco in 2179, to investigate the sudden loss of contact with the colony of Hadley's Hope. She was subsequently involved in combating the Xenomorph infestation at the colony. Vasquez was part of First Squad's gun team, along with Private Hudson. She had a long history with fellow Smartgun operator Private Mark Drake, and the two shared a close, possibly romantic relationship. Vasquez was among the last to perish in the incident, committing suicide with Lieutenant Gorman rather than be captured by the Xenomorphs for impregnation.
