Musa Ghanem

Commander Musa is a former SPARTAN-II candidate and one of the creators of the SPARTAN-IV Program.

Biography
Musa was abducted in 2517 along with the other SPARTAN-IIs. As a result of his body rejecting some of the augmentations, Musa was forced into a wheelchair for the rest of his life. He held a grudge toward Dr. Catherine Halsey and the Office of Naval Intelligence not only for his own predicament, but also for the other candidates who were either maimed or killed by the augmentations. Even though he viewed the SPARTAN-II Program as morally repugnant, Musa also recognized the importance of their accomplishments during the Human-Covenant War. He believed that Spartans were still necessary in the aftermath of the war and as a result, he proposed that more Spartans be created, in the form of the SPARTAN-IV Program. In January 2553, he brought together several admirals at HIGHCOM Facility Bravo-6 to discuss the development and necessity of the new Spartan program.
