I don't think there's ever been a name for what group they were from. They're just a bunch of Spartan-IIIs that did what they were meant to do: Help fight the enemies of the UNSC
Goody, more Spartans being ONI'd into existance. Hoorah...
Can we just say they're supposed to be Red team?I like the idea of ONI nabbing Spartans at will for their personal, secret use. It opens up new possibilities without damaging canon.
OT: They're randomly generated. Kinda-sorta symbolic, kinda-sorta just a cool set-piece.
You're joking, right? Noble Team alone breaks canon, we don't need more being pulled out of PROMETHEUS and TORPEDO to screw things up more, the whole point of the conclusion of those battles was that every S-III (minus Tom & Lucy) died in a similar way to the battle of Thermopylae.
Pulling out S-IIIs before the op is a terrible way of trying to cover up the fact that they shouldn't be alive. A few S-IIIs would be at least acceptable, but any more will just destory the point Nylund made.
Canon-wise, games have more weight than the books.
I think that maybe the Spartan IIIs were the probably the few survivors and were tasked with defending the Pillar of Autumn from the Covenant. You didn't see them because you were too busy on the landing platform and too far away to see them anyway.
