*****************Spoilers Ahead**********************


She made it and eventually saved the whole squad at the end of First Strike.

Maybe there is another group of Spartan II's, but there is no specific point in the books where a more advanced group of Spartans (Spartan IIIs) is confirmed.

ALSO

If you follow the timeline it took to train John 117's group of Spartans, then you could assume that there are at least another 2 - 3 groups of younger Spartans that have been trained, and are most likely already engaged in the a field of battle:)

-Eagle 117
P.S.
S-III and CPOMZ could mean other things:)

There have to be more MC might only have a list of his group of Spartans I explained earlier (long time ago) in The Enkidu Thread that there are at least 3 other groups of spartans the possible 4th may have died on reach which means there are many more spartans left that MC may not know about. As for new armor I doubt it because MC got the real stuff fairly recently in the books. I can't be sure beacause I don't have the books with me right now but It was about it could not have been 2-3 months before reach fell. And flash cloning was said to not work still because there is genetic flaws where they die within a year.

The Enkidu Thread was based off false statements...non-Bungie.

Yes, there could be another group of Spartans, other than MC group of Spartans, but they wouldn't be Spartan III's unless they were more advanced Spartans. Spartan III's would be a different Spartan program...not the same as Dr. Halsey's program.

Remember CPO mendez did go off to train another group of spartans.

  • 07.29.2004 1:46 PM PDT

Another group of Spartan II's, or a new, more advanced, group/program of Spartan III's?

It doesn't say, and that is my point:)

Yeah, we know that, but Kelly's the only one whose actually MIA, since Dr. Halsey kidnapped her and took her back to Earth. and the 4 Spartans that are still in action are Fred, Will, Linda, and John. [/quote] She wasn NOT taken back to Earth.Re-read first strike. When Cortana examines there departure vector, it's not for Earth.

But all SPARTANS that die are labeled MIA. Something about not letting the human society know that they died because it would lower the spirits of the humans back home. Ya but i cant remember where it was to. And i didnt understand why she took that spartan and stole that ship and took off somewhere. But i need to reread it before Halo 2 launches.
