There was 24 spartans present at that meeting, Halsey said there was "Two dozen spartans" present at Reach at the time before the invasion
Thats odd. From what I read on Halo.wiki, there were 30 Spartans in the battle for Reach. Both later in FoR in Chapter 29, Page 276 and First Strike Chapter 1 Page 7 . Can you confirm?
As a side note, Halo Wars states 25 out of the 28 original, remaining Spartan IIs, came to Reach to be briefed.
So theres a Spartan that came to Reach to be briefed, that wasn't at the briefing( unless two dozen was rounding down). That Hasely ignores. And there are five Spartans that fight in the BoR, that weren't at the briefing, but also couldn't be of the original 33 Spartan IIs. Because based upon we know, putting Halo Wars timeline aside, only 28 Spartans could be alive by the time Reach falls. Are these five Spartans the ones in the banner?
possibly,thats a pretty good theory,but i have found a cauple other mistakes in the number of spartans in the book.i'm not sure know but will post it a bit.
