Talk:UNSC Army

Ranks
I guess me and Ryangreenday have to start working on the Army ranks CommanderTony

Nice
Considering the utter lack of information about the UNSC Army, i am very impressed with this article!  Kora ‘Morhekee   The Battle-Net  My Conquests.  21:25, 7 July 2007 (UTC)


 * There's only so far available information can be stretched. More than that, its likely to be fan fiction or speculation. -- Manticore  [[Image:Fleet Admiral.jpg|20px]] Talk 10:29, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

Battle
That battle on Mars, you know, the one Col. Ackerson got captured in? Ackerson is an Army officer, so I think we can assume the UNSC Army was in this battle. Even though it's not confirmed, it's so heavily implied that it should at least be in this article under a conjecture label. What say you?

i argee with the idea above and you could state that it is just asumed due to evidence chadd 10 september 20:30

Could the UNSC army be on earth at the time of H-3
Well its more of a really really simple theroy if the defence group you know Hood Strattus Ackerson and the other brass pulled most of the fleet to earth wouldn't the army be there also the army would use the same type of combat dress as the Marines minus the ODST armor. The UNSC Army might have also went with the marines to the ark because at the end of the game it never clarified who exactly went in the portal minus Jhonson Keyes and Jhon it seems to me that the marine garrision is low because of Reach.


 * Well, I don't think the Army uniforms would be the same as the Marine uniforms. I think they would rather look like Colonial Militia outfits. And I don't think the Army went to the Ark either, because the Army is a land-based force unlike the Marines who get to ride in starships and yonder the galaxy. -- UNSC Trooper [[Image:unsctrooper_small.jpg|14px]] TalkMy Work 17:38, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Typo
I really don't think there is such a thing as the UNSC Army. James Ackerson is probably a UNSC Marine Corps Colonel. Those of you familiar with the novels know that the author of Ghosts of Onyx, the only mentioning of the UNSC Army, know that the only time the UNSC Army is described is when Kurt Ambrose sees Ackerson and describes him as an Army Colonel.

If you've read all the previous novels, and you know as much about the military as I do, you'd notice that Eric Nylund is not very military savy and has made hanus mistakes concerning ranks before (describing 2nd and 1st Lieutenants as Navy ranks, for example). Idolo 18:33, 19 November 2007 (UTC)


 * We asked Eric Nylund if you can check the letters of canon. The UNSC Army exists. -- A J [[Image:ArmyJROTC.jpg|20px]] 19:35, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Letters of canon? What? Idolo 19:48, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Better yet, look at THIS -- UNSC Trooper  TalkMy Work 20:19, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

It still looks to me like he made a typo and tried to cover it up later by saying there really is a UNSC Army, instead of actually admitting to his mistake. I wouldn't try and get my Halo facts from him, especially after "1st and 2nd Lieutenant Lovell". Idolo 20:25, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

He's our best source of contact. We trust anything that comes from him, so yeah. -- A J  20:26, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
