On the last page of the conversations from the universe in the special edition, someone called Cassandra writes "117" ( i know this is john, just quoting) a letter, saying she is happy to be skinned again, after a conflict of some sort. Could this be one of the three spartans that were too far away from reach to help out? Maybe the only survivor of the trio?
If it was though, im sure she would have quoted her spartan number, not just her name....

No. Bungie has VERY clearly stated that the Books and Games have slightly different storylines, and the Spartans are all dead in the Game story.

That's not Dr. Halsey's first name, and none of the other known Spartans have that name anyway.

There are a lot of better ranked soldiers than the Chief. And, a grunt won't be named cassandra.

PS: I have seen through the dirty little trick in your name, so from now on I will call you Zorg.

[sarcasm]No that's Dr Halsey cuz everyone knows that Miranda looks just like Cortana...[/sarcasm]

You may actually be on to something, but I still don't think this Cassandra person will play too much of a major role.

Stay with the Master Chief, he'll know what to do

Yeah, check the Conv. from the Universe booklet, and at the last page there is a letter to 117, from ol' Cassie herself!

Here it is:

117,

As you might imagine - though I know you won't - I've heard quite a bit of your recent adventures on the Halo. I'm glad you made it; I have to assume you always will. Recovery is going well and i procedding to 4th stage rehabilitation. It is significantly more painful than previous stages, but i'm happy to be skinned once again.

I hear that you will be testing the new Mark VI. I will definetly look for the reports on how it works out. The specs are obviously improved, but the choice to incorporate further Covenant technology somehow makes my skin crawl.

We miss you John. I've asked Sargeant Johnson to let me know if you're ever near the M2SL Recovery Station and perhaps I'll be able to come see you. I' hoping I'll have the chance soon. Today, humanity feels pale and thin with only ghosts to defend her heart. I feel much the same.

I'll write again.

-Cassandra

Yeah thats what i thought, especially the part about the armor, because she's too far away to test it out, if it's on earth, that is. And because of the specs and stats that she wants to read up on, also she sounds like she can handle pain, and talks lke a spartan.

I am...whimsical today.

She could be one of the Spartans who 'dropped out' of the program after the chemical enhancemants. They could be gradually healing her as new techniques and methods are developed?

Thats a good point, didn't think of that one, she could well be. Just like Fhjad, the one who was crippled, who is now in intelligence/ research. BUT, that was over 20 years ago, why would she be just recovering? Unless she was the spartan who was too injured to proceed with the operation prior to Reach, like Dr. Halsey said " Two killed and one too injured to carry on duty" in regard to the remaining Spartans
