I guess he has to take orders from Keyes while he is on his ship.I don't know why he listens to him on the ground though.Is anybody in the military that can tell us if he out ranks Keyes . I think he does.

im pretty sure the MC out ranked Keyes by a little.

But the MC listened to him and said yes sir because he respected Keyes so much.

The Master Chief emerged from his code. After seeing his dynamically lit realtime shadow, he went back for 9 more months of development.


Behold the power of the Originals, the Gods Axeone-Neurone.

You also have to remember you are dealling with two branches of the military both Navy and Marines. The MC is part of the Navy and does not out rank Captains.

If you read the books you'll find out that mc is not the highest rank. He still has to take orders from higher ranked people. And captian keyes outranks masterchief. In The Flood doesnt the leutenint or whatever out rank him?

The Master Chief does not outrank Keyes because Keyes is an officer. Even the lowliest of officers outrank the MC, because he is enlisted, and not an officer. I know because my dad was in the military.

John, the Master Chief is enlisted. There is no way he out ranks Keys. Keys in an Officer! MC is one of the highest enlisted ranks though. Also the Navy and Marines are not sperate branches of the military. The Marines operate under The Department of the Navy.

Although I am in the Army not Navy, there are differences between enlisted ranks and warrent officer ranks, I believe this applies to all branches of the military.

Umm... no. The MC is not in charge. He still has the entire fleet to answer to. He is the highest ranking Spartan. So, he's in charge of them, but that's it.

Through war we will teach your heresy.
Through battle we will teach your frailty.
Through death we will teach your fate.

What's wrong with you people! The military has a whole command structure in place.
