(Yeah, I suppose it isn't explicitly named as such, but it seems fairly obvious. At the very least it's better than calling it "Unidentified poem (Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn)".) |

Forward Unto Dawn is a poem about humanity's shared destiny and ascendancy under the auspices of the Unified Earth Government. Most notably, the Charon-class light frigate UNSC Forward Unto Dawn was named after one of the recurring lines in the poem. The piece was inscribed over the beds in the bunk rooms of Corbulo Academy of Military Science; the line "From Earth, For Earth" also served as a UNSC slogan that was found in decorative banners across the school. In addition, the line "Honor, Valor, Allegiance" was referenced by CAMS superintendent, General Black, in a speech to Hastati Squad after they failed a training exercise.[1]
The poem
The exact length–or even beginning and end–of the poem have not been specified, as it has only been partially observed in the plaques over the beds at Corbulo Academy.
