Q
I spotted an Easter Egg in the trailer after I watched it a few times. How do you explain that?

A
The New Mombasa City Council had an incredibly efficient public works department until and even during the tragic and devastating Covenant invasion.

The above quote is from the H3 Q&A on Bungie. Now, I'm sure that you've all read it so you know all about it but I put it there for those who have yet to or can't.

Now to the point. In the question, he says he spotted an Easter egg in the trailer. I've watched the trailer X amount of times but let's just say I can describe it from memory in accurate detail fairly easily. I've spotted several things that could be the mentioned easter egg, but don't know for sure.

Now, does anyone out there know or have any CREDITABLE ideas of what the easter egg could be or is?

The sign at the begining is a grunt. That is also a clue that grunts are part of the force that took over the planet.

My idea of the grunt sign is that Earth has a grunt work force that may clean up the area or make certain materials for us, but they r like how convicts have to pick up trash beside the road. It is forced labor. Like in the Halo novels the mariens make the grunts pick up the dead bodies of mariens and clean up the area after a Covenant attack.
