Killed in action

Killed In Action, better known to the world as KIA, is a classification used by the United Nations Space Command that denotes the death of a soldier during/after a combat mission or situation.

Due to the need to increase morale in the United Nations Space Command, Spartan-II super-soldiers are never listed as 'Killed In Action', but rather as Missing In Action or Wounded in Action to give the appearance that they are invincible and can never die.
