You know, I've read all the Halo books and figured out that in the last one, First Strike, there are still a few Spartans alive and well on the UNSC Frigate Gettysburg. Where do they go? They can't just magically die and no one would know. Perhaps I am retarted and missed why they aren't explained in H2. Also, I am not sure if this is the correct Forum to post in. But, please, if anyone knows, reply.

There was a small span of time between the end of First Strike and the beginning of Halo 2, so the only logical explanation is that the other Spartans were reassigned to some important mission during this time. Perhaps we will find out about where they went in Ghosts of Onyx.

There is one other explanation: They died, Spartans aren't immortal you know.

I haven't read all the Halo novel, but maybe some of the spartans surivived but lost contac with earth forces. We could see them in Halo 3.

When does the Ghots of Onyx take place? Anyone know the time period? Because if it does take place between the end of First Strike and Halo 2, then it is possible they were killed or some other event happened. Also, Cortana mentions that after the annhilation of the covie fleet and they are headed back to Earth, it will take about thirty-five hours. Anything could happen. Linda, Will, and Fred are the Spartans still with the Cheif on the Gettysburg, btw.
