ONI memorial

Not to be confused with the Hillside Memorial, the UNSC tribute to various UNSC personnel after the end of the war. The ONI Memorial is a series of memorial plaques dedicated to deceased personnel of the Office of Naval Intelligence, found inside the ONI Alpha Site. It can be seen in the Campaign level ONI Alpha Site and the Firefight map Alpha Site.

Left plaque
At the top it states: In Honor of those men and women of Naval Intelligence who gave their lives in service of the UNSC in the War against The Covenant.

Below that it lists the names of many men and women:

At the bottom it states: ''Their bold initiative, intrepid fighting spirit and unwavering devotion to duty in the face of certain death reflected great credit upon themselves and were in keeping with the highest traditions of U.N.S.C. Naval service. They gallantly gave their lives in defense of the Human Race.''

After a hard won battle, Cole and the battle group returned to Earth only to learn that other colonies had been destroyed as well. After his promotion to Admiral, Cole led a campaign against the enemy for the next five years, culminating in a victory over a Covenant fleet in 2531. VADM Stanforth, Michael SN: 00834-19223-HS + 07/03/2486--08/30/2552 + Vice Admiral Hieronymus Michael Stanforth was the head of Section THREE of the Office of Naval Intelligence from 2512-2530. Section THREE was at its busiest under his administration many projects were leverage in order to boost support for the war effort (including Project SPARTAN, MJOLNIR and GUNGNIR). In August of 2530 he resigned as head of Section THREE to take a more active role in the defense of UNSC space-leading the UNSC Navy in the Battle of Sigma Octanus IV and directing the Defense of Reach during its final days.

 * The memorial incorrectly lists Preston Cole's date of birth as April 4, 2484, when he was in fact born November 3, 2470.
 * On the left plaque, it says that they gave their lives for the human race, while on the right it says they gave their lives for the UNSC.
