All Right I did some reasearch on some Other sites and I found Out some of the spartains So...
Out of 150 original candidates out of which there was funding for only half
75 total pre-augmentation (stated several times; also mistakenly mentions "seventy-four"; as well, there other reports of 67, etc.)
30 died during surgery ("Thirty candidates had 'washed out' of the Spartan program; they died during the augmentation process."
No names known
12 crippled in surgery ("There were a dozen others, though, who had lived... but were no longer soldiers."; "The other dozen, suffering from side effects of the process, had been permanently reassigned within the Office of Naval Intelligence.")
Kirk
Fhajad-084
Rene
9 others left unnamed
33 left in the squad ("There were only thirty-two soldiers left in his squad [besides John?]" ; "John glanced around the launch chamber; Sam, Kelly, and thirty others still stood at attention in their black dress uniforms [1+2+30=33]" 7; "The other Spartans stood at attention. Thirty-three - too many for this operation."
3 away on missions too distant to be easily recalled (This Is gray team from New book.)
3 Spartans MIA (KIA) over the past decade, 2542-2552; not including Samuel ("...there have only been three KIAs..."
1 more Spartan (Samuel-034) MIA (KIA) during Covenant ship infiltration in 2525
1 Spartan seriously wounded, could not continue active duty ("...and one Spartan too wounded to continue active duty." [possibly Cassanndra?]
This leaves 25 present at Reach before splitting into Red and Blue teams (with 3 more away making 28 active Spartans in total) which adds up and is confirmed during Halsey's briefing ("Clustered around him were two dozen Spartans: Fred, Linda, Joshua, James, and many others he had not spoken to for years...[2 dozen + John = 25]"
However, it is stated that there are 30 Spartans at Reach at the beginning of H1/First Strike ("The primary storage bay had been converted into barracks for the thirty Spartans" ; "Twenty-seven Spartans braced themselves... [plus the 3 in orbit = 30]" ). This is inconsistent with the number of 25 at Reach established earlier/above.
Regardless, from here they split into 2 teams:
Blue Team has 3 members:
John-117
Linda-058 is 'killed' but eventually revived
James is blasted of into space Frank Poole style, marked MIA
Red Team supposedly has 27 members (number mentioned several times; it "should" have 22):
4 KIA during the Reach freefall
Malcolm-059
3 others unnamed
Alpha Team: 3 members
Red 1: Frederic-104
Red 2: Kelly-087 (later abducted by Halsey; alive, but MIA)
Red 3: Joshua-029 (goes missing in LZ Assault; MIA, assumed KIA)
Beta Team: whoever is left from Red 4-11 and Red 13-20; either 11 or 6 Spartans depending on the accepted initial count
No members named
All MIA/KIA during generator defense purple]
Gamma Team 3 members
Red 21: Anton-044, killed by a ship plasma bolt, MIA/KIA (
Red 22: Grace-093, who is later killed by Brutes aboard the Unyielding Hierophant, KIA (
Red 23: Li-008, killed by a ship plasma bolt, MIA/KIA (
Delta Team 6 members

Red ?: Isaac-039, assumed dead retreating into Forerunner caves on Reach, MIA/KIA (
Red ?: Vinh-030, assumed dead retreating into Forerunner caves on Reach, MIA/KIA (
3 others unnamed, MIA/KIA
So Spartain 259 is not listed
