At the beginning of the novel there is a line that says in Fred 104's Pelican "twenty-seven Spartans braced themselves", however in Halo: The Fall of Reach it is stated on page 240 that there were at Reach "two dozen Spartans" and Master Chief, with 3 other Spartans "engaged on fields of combat too distant to be easily recalled" therefore the pelican that Fred 104 takes to the surface should only have 22 Spartans since John 117 takes two Spartans with him in a separate Pelican for the space op. Eric Trautmann has implies that the discrepancy is being considered part of continuity and a potential future story hook
there is the mistake in the numbers that i was looking for,as we all know they started with 75 children spartans,and on page 48 when they where trying to trick the guys at the pelican,it says(john counted them just to make sure:67) anybody have any idea WHY there was only 67 and not 75.
