5 years and counting on Bungie. I feel old and worthless.
Error: Alpha Company was wiped out completely during Operation: PROMETHEUS in 2537. Carter, Emile, and Jun should not be alive.
Proof: Halo: Ghosts of Onyx goes into quite a bit of detail on Operation: PROMETHEUS. Spartan-III Alpha Company (comprised of 300 Spartans) were sent to K7-49 on a mission to destroy plasma reactors the Covenant were using to liquefy metallurgical components.
The operation was a success, but it is explicitly stated that it cost the lives of every Spartan-III on the asteroid because they got cut off from their Calypso-class Exfiltration crafts and completely lost their unit cohesion.
Halo Reach chooses to ignore this. Carter (A-259), Emile (A-239), and Jun (A-266) are a part of Noble Team when they should have been dead years ago; Bungie have given us no explanation on how they escaped at all.

Error: ONI's actions as well as the Cole Protocol.
According to the Cole Protocol, if any Covenant Forces are detected, then all NAV bases and ships should purge their computers of information to protect Earth and the inner colonies.
Proof:If Covenant are detected on Reach on July 23rd, how is it that a month later, there are still computers with information to Earth still active? If ONI hadn't taken more than a month, than Blue team wouldn't have been deployed to the Circumference, and James wouldn't have died, and Linda wouldn't have been in a coma. Infact, they would have been on Reach with Red team.
Sources:
Pg 289 of The Fall of Reach gives information on the purging of Info not complete.

Error: Carter, Emile, and Jun's age.
Carter is born in 2520. He was 11 years old when Alpha Company began their training. This puts him 5 years above the previously stated age, and it makes no sense at all. Why would they have an 11 year old on the same training regime as a 4 year old? It's too large of a difference, and it's an error that can be avoiding by simply changing his birthdate. This same thing goes for Emile and Jun, who are older than 6 years old at Alpha training.
Proof: Page 69(I'm doing this by memory, I may be wrong.) of Ghosts of Oynx states that all of Alpha Company was comprised of 4, 5, and 6 year old children that he was going to have to forge into the best warriors humanity has ever seen.

Error: Pillar of Autumn on Reach.
Proof During the final level of Halo: Reach, the Pillar of Autumn is on the planet, and isn't in space, preparing for the Prophet mission. This COMPLETELY destroys much of Halo's canon. If the ship wasn't in space, than the Spartans of Red Team would have never jumped to the planet, meaning that the 4 spartans who died, would have still been alive. Which could have hanged the outcome of the battle. PLUS, the space op to destroy the Circumference's NAV data wouldn't have happened. So Chief, James, and Linda had no reason to NOT be part of Red team. So the chief wouldn't have been on the Autumn, so Halo: CE wouldn't have happened.
Why schedule a mission to capture a prophet, when there's a full scale invasion of Humanities second most important planet?

All of these, I can explain.
Error: Alpha Company was wiped out completely during Operation: PROMETHEUS in 2537. Carter, Emile, and Jun should not be alive.
Solution: Jun, Emile, and Carter were all pulled out before Operation: PROMETHEUS, just like Kat and N6 were pulled out of Beta right before Operation: TORPEDO. Every single Spartan of PROMETHEUS didn't make it, although a few were pulled out. For the age of the three Noble Alphas, it was confirmed that they were recruited older than the normal parameters, but the book says everybody was 4, 5, and 6.
Error: ONI's actions as well as the Cole Protocol
Solution: ONI probably had not got time to purge all of the databases relating to the Cole Protocol once there was Covenant action, and had to fight their ways back to their databases.
Error: Pillar of Autumn on Reach
Solution: The PoA was up in space when the missions for the Spartan II's were commenced, and Red was sent down to do ground missions. Blue Team purged the NAV's on the Circumference, and came back into the Autumn. The PoA found out that it had to go back to the surface for Repairs, etc. and to possibly pick up Red Team. Red Team couldn't make it to Aezod, so instead of Cortana's fragment being flown up to the PoA, the Remainder of Noble Team transported it to the PoA. In an Easter Egg in the Reach level, Pillar of Autumn, you can see the MC or Linda in Cryo on the Pillar of Autumn, so either my point is right, or a much bigger piece of Canon is broken.
