Dont be shy...
Im sorry for my coup changes but Im new at this.

At the start of the game you can see the rookie is sleeping and if wait after the credits there is a cutscene were the Sgt. Johnson appears under the stairs you can see the rookie sleeping again, so why the rookie is always sleeping?

In the beginning he could just be tired, but if I was roaming a dark city killing aliens all night, I'd be tired too.

If you're just sitting around doing nothing for a while might as well get a bit of sleep in since as a soldier during a war you could quickly get put in a situation where you won't be able to get any sleep for several days.

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

I'd be sleeping too. If you're about to go on a near-suicidal mission, I'd want a nice lil nap too. Plus, you never know what can happen where you'll need all the energy you can get. Also, it'd be awkward if he was just standing around while Romeo, Dutch, Mickey, Buck, and Dare were talking.

[Insert something funny]

He took a big hit of Medkit and passed out. Why do you think he uses so much in the campaign?

All that is needed for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

i love reach i'm the scorpions clan leader wanna fight?

cause if you were in the war you may take turns to sleep and guard and if youre in your ship its a perfect time to take a nap nap and recover energies cause he always loses energies while fighting with the covenant you can't sleep to much when you're a soldier you know

It's like a gigantic snowball, rolling down a mountain, eating kids on the way.

Because he looks more badass when he sleeps.
