This is Sparta!!! eh I mean Reach ^^

http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Boren's_Syndrome

It was said that Sgt. Johnson was officially listed as having the boren syndrome, which is actually a cover up of the Spartan I augmentations (based on the ORION project) by ONI.
This resulted that Sgt. Johnson could not be infected by the Flood.
Maybe that's why he was so hard to be killed ^^

OMG a Pwny!

Yes he was a Spartan 1. It was also revealed in the Halo Graphic Novel.

Isn't that Byrne guy a Spartan-I as well? I don't remember fully, but I am pretty sure they were both in Project ORION.

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

Yep. He's technically a SPARTAN-I.

My jokes, so I don't lose them (ignore this):
ZedFish's Opinion on Sgt. Foley.
ZedFish's Forerunner Rickroll.

Do remember, though; Spartan-Is had a minimal improvement; little things, like immunity to certain diseases and slight performance improvements here'n'there.

He just a beast because he's Johnson.

Signatures are for squares.

Johnson is the only confirmed Spartan I.

It is possible that Byrne, as well as Mendez are Spartan I's as well.

We'll bury our burdens in blood...

Johnson was beast not because he was a Spartan I. It was b/c he knew what the ladies liked.

Spartan 1's were stronger and faster, and had slight regenerative capabilities. They were not superhuman, like the 2's and 3's however. So, due to the cost vs return, the project was terminated.

Think of 1's like Captain America. Brought to the height of what can naturally be accomplished. The S2's and S3's dodge bullets and flip cars, survive orbital falls. That's what ONI was paying for, not just incredibly fit and agile normal people.

Seriously Oak, Ive been doing this -blam!- for 16 years, gimmie my Friggen starter Pokemon and dont call me till im the champion! ¬_¬

Basically spartan I's were like permenantly adreniline charged soilders, not as complex but still an improvement

Its easy to speculate many of the bad ass marines in the haloverse were I's, but only a few are confirmed

Check the website erm... I Love Bee's i think it was, details the story of some I's returning to sociaty, starting lives and having their children hunted by Oni as they're "Spartan 1.1's"

It would be pretty cool to see Johnson in his full exoskeleton suit.

Spartan I's didn't have exoskeleton suits.

Mendez may as well be confirmed to be a Spartan I just from all the hints in Ghosts of Onyx. "It takes a Spartan to train Spartans", "I wondered what kind of Spartan the Chief would have made", etc.
