The Spartans started training at six. And it wasn't easy, bacause they were kids. This was the kind of -blam!- you'd see in the first episode of Band of Brothers. At 12, they recived sugical enhancements. That made their bones nearly impossible to break, their eyesight extremely good, muscles denser, and motor skills greatly improved. The MJOLNIR armor increases strength, and reflexes. Any 'normal' human using the armor would be killed. (I still get chills when I read about the part when the marine tried to move his arm, and it flew back, he broke all kinds of things in his arm.
BTW, check Borders. I've seen several Halo books there, some used, alot new.
