Bulltrue

Bulltrue is a Halo 3 Multiplayer medal that is awarded when a player kills another player who is in the act of an Energy Sword lunge. The lunge does not have to be directed at the receiver, only any player. It is represented by a brown diamond with a silver outline and a bull's head in the center. It is accompanied with the message, "Bulltrue!".

Obtaining The Medal
In the Halo 3 Beta, it was simply a red star, because the Energy Sword wasn't supposed to be found in the Beta's Custom Games and variants. It is easily achieved with dual Maulers or a Shotgun. If lucky, an Assault Rifle, dual-wielded SMG, or Magnums would work, if the enemy dies right as the lunge occurs.

It is actually a very challenging medal to attain, unless playing Grifball or against inexperienced players. This medal is slightly easier to obtain as a Juggernaut, as increased shielding and damage resistance lead to a non-one-hit-kill with the sword. A popular yet difficult way to obtain this medal is to hit the sword user with a sniper headshot at close range. Another way to receive this medal is to play infection variants, such as Living Dead. In some gametypes the zombies have no shield and spawn with swords. If you get this medal on a mythic map, you will be awarded with the achievement ... Get the Horns.

Trivia

 * The name of the medal may be a reference to the 1980's movie, Stand By Me, where one child says "Bullshit," and another replies, "Bulltrue!"
