- Unknown amount of ORION Project candidates.
- 75 Spartan-II candidates (33 known survivors).
- Spartan-III Alpha Company, 300.
- Spartan-III Beta Company, 320 (I think, going by Kat's service number).
- Spartan-III Gamma Company, 330.
That added together is 1025, 983 if you subtract the 42 S-IIs that didn't make it past augmentation. We obviously have no data on the number of ORION Project members.
I think Kat's service tag is more like the Spartan II project, when they first started picking kids, there were 150 with only half of them being kept for the program, from what I understand the same happened to the Spartan III companies but in a lesser scale (30 was the number of rejected kids I believe.)
Ah yes, very true. Same happened with Alpha Company where Kurt states 400 kids came out but about 100 of them washed out.
I'd assume the washouts were probably used for the Headhunters and maybe some of them made up teams like Noble.
