Well, its come to my attention how everyone wants helmet cams, as seen in Hal CE with Jenkins' in a way so you can do it with nearly any dead soldier.
Well, in the ODST achievments list I've noticed something about audio logs, now these probably only come from certain places, much like the Marathon Man achievment in Halo 3. But if we're getting audio logs now, and we've already seen a helmet cam before, could this be getting closer?
Maybe not every dead marine would have one, but certainly at least one per 'massacred' squad, or in a Flood you kill, (yes I know, I've read the books and there were no Flood on Reach) for example, you could find out how they got infected and where. Or how such a well defended position was overun so quickly.
I think we're getting close to this.
Its not my idea, I've just been finding more possible evidence.

...Does anyone really read these?

IDEA:
The helmet cams you find are from each man of Victor Company.
Some of them intersect with other ones.
The end of each one is there death.
They can hint you to locations of weapons.
You find all but one. And the one you find shows the last man that isn't dead in the company being captured. Then you use clues from the other cams to find him.
They also can warn you by how they died.(squad gets ambushed in the area you find the cam, and when you exit cam, you have, like 30 seconds, to run before you as well are ambushed.)
Cams are in helmets so sometimes they might not be near the body, showing footage of the person who it belongs to fighting, and their helmet flew off.
You can view them again in extras menu.

Maybe something like the web thing in prototype where a lot of the side stories are told.

Hmmm, thats very good, maybe each cam will hints the location of the next, like a Marine saying their best chance would be to hold out at firebase Charlie or whatever.
