During a training exercise he and Spartan [[Yeong-hao Holst]] were disabled by stun rounds. After Spartan [[Sarah Palmer]] completed the objective, [[Jun-A266]] berated them for nearly losing to the [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]]. He agreed with Spartan [[Vladimir Scruggs]] that they would have beaten twice as many soldiers had they had spartan armor. [[Commander]] [[Musa-096]] informed him they would get armor when they showed they deserved it. When Jun introduced the SPARTAN-IVs to Musa, Joel recognized that he was a former [[SPARTAN-II]].<ref>'''[[Halo: Initiation]]''', ''Issue #2''</ref> | ||
