The '''password-lacking Marine''' is an [[Easter egg]] in ''[[Halo 3]]'' campaign. In the level ''[[Crow's Nest (Level)|Crow's Nest]]'', there is a [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marine]] at the end of the first long, curved corridor. There is a humorous exchange of words between this Marine, who needs ammunition for himself and his comrades, and someone behind a door that leads to an armory. The exact discussion changes depending on difficulty, but it always involves this Marine trying to get through the door without a password that is intended to keep [[Jiralhanae|Brutes]] from entering. Either he forgot or never knew about it. They're voiced and possibly written by the creators and voices of ''[[Red vs Blue]]''. At the end of each conversation, the Marine repeatedly knocks the door until killed.

Interestingly, the man behind the door does not even bother to check the security camera even though a sign next to the door clearly indicates there is one, although based on the complaints regarding Crow's Nest frequent maintenance needs, it is possible the camera is offline and the man behind the door used this as an alternative. Ironically, if the player kills him he drops an [[MA5C Individual Combat Weapon System|Assault Rifle]] which is contradicting as he says he needs ammunition and it actually had ammunition. Also, he won't groan or flinch if the player shoots or [[melee]]s him.

*Each time, the characters are voiced by a different set of ''Red vs. Blue'' actors. On [[Easy]] and [[Normal]], it is Jason Saldaña (Tucker) and Hullum(Sarge/Doc). On [[Heroic]], it is Geoff Ramsey (Grif) and Gustavo Sorola (Simmons). On [[Legendary]], it is Burnie Burns (Church) and Joel Heyman (Caboose). The character models for the Marines change as well. On Easy and Normal, the Marine is usually a radio operator.

*Sometimes, a glitch occurs and the conversation from a different difficulty can be heard on the difficulty the player is currently playing on.
*Sometimes a glitch occurs and the conversation from a different level can be heard on the level you're currently playing on.


*This is a reference to Episode 21, Motion to Adjourn, where Simmons tells Grif that he is the ammo holder. Grif is later told that he shouldn't sleep during staff meetings so he would know his assignments.
*It should be noted that a sign that says video surveillance is right beside the door, so the voice inside should be able to watch a monitor to confirm whether or not a Marine was at the door.


*There is also another a reference to Episode 78, You Can't Park Here, where Church is attempting to get into Blue Base to kill Tucker's alien baby and Doc stops him, saying " Well now I'm definitely not letting you in." But now Doc (Matt Hullum) is trying to keep the aliens (Brutes) out.

*Also, the joke for the Legendary version is a reference to Sarge making a password "password", an access-code "access code" and the codeword "codeword".
