In halo 2 and three the Sangheli refrence the flood as though they have delt with it before halo which was only months prior?

Since they worshiped the Forerunners, it's likely they knew about the Flood before Alpha Halo.

In Contact Harvest it mentions that they knew about the Flood. They were in Halo Wars too remember.

Halo CE is largely described as the first recorded instance of dealing with the Flood, but I think we can dismiss this as it was established before the Halo Universe expanded to what it is today.

Certainly the Elites understand, better than anyone, the severity of the Flood threat, and take it most seriously.

I don't think they fully understand it, but they do take it seriously.

I am Katsu Kage, an assassin trained in the art of stealth. I was on a recon mission when I discovered a blue box hidden among some rubble. Once I entered the blue box it had taken me to a land far away. It was strange and fantastic! There I met PatikaVoom, the most beautiful woman I'd ever seen. She showed me this land, then returned with me to the blue box. She called it a TARDIS and seemed to know how to work it. We left together and have been on many adventures, with many more to come!

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

They knew of the Flood by their battle against the Forerunners, which is a key part in the Covenant religion, because it was that fight that made the Forerunners fire the rings and turn in to gods blah blah blah.

It´s very possible they had dealt with the Flood in the past, or Half Jaw was refering to the outbreak on Alpha Halo.
