Kirk was a genetically, intellectually, and physically gifted child chosen for the [[SPARTAN-II]] project. He was abducted by the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] and replaced with a [[flash clone]] when he was around six years old. He and seventy-four other children were taken to [[Reach]] in the [[Epsilon Eridani system]]. There, he was trained by the [[dumb AI|"dumb" AI]], [[Déjà]] and [[Chief Petty Officer]] [[Franklin Mendez]], with the two serving as the Spartans' teacher and drill instructor, respectively. In [[2519]], he was taken alongside his fellow trainees to a [[Military Wilderness Training Preserve]] for a mission that required each trainee to be left alone in the woods with only a single piece of a map. It was up to them to find one another so that they could piece the map together and locate the designated extraction point. The mission was ultimately a success. At another point during training, Kirk and the others traveled to [[Emerald Cove]] for an underwater mission. There, they abandoned Mendez and lived on their own on an island for a few days. By [[2523#July|July 14, 2523]], Kirk and his fellow Spartan-IIs had begun facing the formidable and ruthless [[UNSC Marine Corps]]' [[Tango Company]] in simulated [[War Games|war games]]. On [[2525#March|March 9, 2525]], Kirk and the rest of the Spartan-II candidates underwent their [[SPARTAN-II augmentation procedures|augmentation procedures]] at [[Medical Facility Endurance]] orbiting Reach. Kirk's skeletal system became disfigured during the surgeries and he could not continue his military career as a SPARTAN-II. His injuries required that he be suspended in a [[neutral-buoyancy gel tank]] and that he breathe with the help of a respirator. He attended a military funeral aboard the [[carrier]], the {{UNSCShip|Atlas}}, in the [[Lambda Serpentis system]] for the Spartans who died during the process.

==Trivia== | |||
In the ''[[Halo 4]]'' trailer ''[[Scanned]]'', a SPARTAN called "zero-one-eight" can be heard being called forward in a room filled with SPARTANs from a speaker, but the SPARTAN that approaches is a woman, clearly not Kirk. | |||
