The plot then goes on to show, in detail, the brutal indoctrination and [[SPARTAN-II training|training regime]] that John and his fellow Spartans are put through. [[Chief Petty Officer]] [[Franklin Mendez|Mendez]] trains the Spartan-IIs, showing them the many necessary virtues of a soldier (e.g. courage, teamwork, skill, etc.) whilst the [[Dumb AI|AI]] [[Déjà]] teaches them history, mathematics, and physics.

After a daring training mission in [[Military Wilderness Training Preserve|the wilds]] of [[Reach]] — where the young Spartans regroup, construct a map of the area from separate pieces, and steal a dropship back to [[Reach FLEETCOM Military Complex|base]] — John-117 is made squad leader of the Spartans. When the Spartans are fourteen, they undergo [[SPARTAN-II augmentation procedures|intense biological enhancements]] that effectively triple their strength, drastically increases their reaction times, make their bones practically indestructible, and increase blood flow to their eyes so that they can almost see in the dark, among various other improvements. However, of the 75 Spartans, less than half emerge still fit for combat; the rest wash out and die during the operations or are horribly injured by the augmentation process. While recovering on the ''[[UNSC Atlas|Atlas]]'', John gets into a fight with a group of [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper]]s, but ends up accidentally killing two of them. The speedy arrival of Chief Mendez leads John to suspect that the incident may have been arranged. | ||
After returning to Reach, the Spartans quickly prove that the augmentations have surpassed all expectations, and their cohesion in battle is amazing. The Spartans are then issued orders to capture [[Robert Watts|Colonel Robert Watts]], an [[Insurrectionist]] leader in the Eridanus asteroid belt. John leads a small team, consisting of [[Samuel-034]], [[Linda-058]], [[Kelly-087]], and [[Frederic-104]], which manages to infiltrate the Insurrectionists' [[Eridanus Secundus|asteroid base]] and capture Watts in [[Operation: TALON]]. John is wounded during this mission and is subsequently awarded a [[Purple Heart]]. | After returning to Reach, the Spartans quickly prove that the augmentations have surpassed all expectations, and their cohesion in battle is amazing.
