I believe the marines seen in the heavy battle armor (aboard the Pelican) in the HALO 2 trailer are actually Spartan III soldiers that are being thrown into the Covenant war prior to them completing their training.

Sometime between the events in "First Strike" and "Halo 2" we will find out more about Ackerson's theft of the Spartan II program and technology, and the new spartans.

The new spartans are more than likely not as advanced or should I say "enhanced" as are the existing Spartan II's (which includes our beloved John-117). Seeing as the new MJOLNIR armor can not be worn by the new guys, the existing Spartans get their new duds, as seen in the Halo 2 trailers.

Well if the events in First Strike proved one thing, it's that the Master Chief is not the only spartan survivior after all.

thats the funniest thing ive ever heard!.....lol....spartan III......
no but seriously they are Orbital Drop Shock Troopers, or, ODSTs. just like that guy above said. to put it simply, they are elite marines from the halo novels. GO READ THEM and then you wont get flamed. as much.
