Subject: A few halo questions...

Two questions:
1: Halo did John 117 become the rank of master chief?
2: what planet was the Covenant fist encountered on?

1. Because he's in the military and was given the rank of Master Chief. ...I dunno how you can really explain it otherwise.
2. Harvest. Hence the Halo Novel 'Contact: Harvest.' That book describes first contact.

Incorrect.

I mean, his promotion is needed for two things,one, he's been awarded every medal except the POW/MIA award. Two, he needs to be a high enough enlisted rank, so that soldiers on the field, even without ever having seen a Spartan, will respect him and listen to his commands.

(Apparently not that it matters in H3, get in the STUPID WARTHOG!)

and he cannot be an officer rank, because officers are mostly planning, AKA Keyes needs to tell him, "Go take that hill", and Chief says to the other marines, "Heres how were gonna take it"

Sense the making of this?
