Oh, for God's sake. This shouldn't have gotten this far. It was explained in the first response.
All Spartans are created under NavSpecWarCom (Naval Special Warfare Command), and deployed as Navy or ONI (Office of Naval Intelligence, or "N4vy 5pi3s lolwut") units.
The only known exception is Noble Team, who were transferred to Special Warfare Group Three. Even then, Special Warfare is it's own branch, headed by an Army Colonel under ONI command. This is the only connection of Spartans to the Army.
It's like, for instance, if a one team of SEALs were taken from the Navy, and put into a brand-new military branch specialising in Spec.Ops. (Like the Delta example a few posts up; but without Army ties)
The rest of the SEALs are still Navy, but that team that was put into another branch- while still SEALs- are not Navy. Nor are they Army, Marines, or Air Force.
Noble Team is not Army. They are not Navy. They are SpecWar.
All other Spartans, II's and III's alike, are Navy units.

And S-III's are Army, hence the DMRHow do you explain Alpha Company, Beta Company, Gamma Company, Delta Company, and their various teams and units under them; the 300-ish other Spartan-III's use MA5 variants, and serve under ONI Section-III.
According to you, this matter shouldn't be too confusing. And while you explain it really well and I shouldn't have any problems with it, I still have one.
Ackerson's an Army Colonel, isn't he? Did he create the SPARTAN-III's to serve under Section-III?
He was in command of the SPARTAN III project which was was under ONI jurisdiction they could of replaced Ackerson with a civilian and it wouldn't matter
Oh yeah, ONI. Forgot about their control over everything, HHNNNNGGGG. Thanks.
