Hastings is a troop commander that participated in Operation Shear.
During the events of Operation Shear, Hastings was placed under the command of Lieutenant Childress in the 24th SAS Regiment's H-Squadron's K Troop. As the company split up, Hastings was placed under the temporary command of Sergeant Brierley, where their unit was sent ahead of the rest of K-Troop to try and take a Chimeran bridge and reinforce Lt. Stephen Cartwright.
As British forces began initiating the final stage of the operation, Hastings was placed in command of a squad with orders to seal off the first pylon of the Chimeran Nexus alongside Sergeant Nathan Hale. Battling a Titan and several Hybrid squads, with the assistance of Sgt. Hale, the unit was able to quickly wipe out the Chimeran forces defending the base of the pylon. Shortly after the Titan was killed, Hastings and his men helped the rest of H-Squadron fighting on the bridge by shooting through the fence.
