'''Tango Company''' is a [[UNSC Marine Corps]] [[company]] stationed on [[Reach]], that participated in the training of the [[SPARTAN-II]]s. | |||

As of July 14, 2523 the Spartans and the Marines had played seven such games, with Tango Company losing every one of them. Tango Company, tired of constant defeat, stopped playing by the rules. They began using live ammunition and abusing Spartan trainees that they caught in their territory. | |||

Then, neutralizing the guards around the flag pole with stun rounds, the Spartans snatched the flag and hid in the trees. Tango Company sent a [[Pelican]] transport in an effort to trick the Spartans into thinking their exfiltration craft had arrived. But, not fooled, the young supersoldiers once again outsmarted and overcame the hapless Marines. | ||
The men and women of Tango Company, tired of losing simple games to a few squads of 12-year-olds, began refering to the Spartans as the "freak Section Three kids". More than once they tortured the Spartans that were "captured" while playing the game. They brutally beat [[James]], whom they claimed had "fallen" down a flight of stairs in their one-story HQ while being transferred to a different cell. It took James a full week to recover from his injuries. | |||
