In ''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]'', during [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Halsey's]] briefing to the Spartans assembled for [[Operation: RED FLAG]], she mentions that among those not present is one SPARTAN-II who was been too critically wounded to continue active duty.<ref>'''Halo: The Fall of Reach''', page ''240''</ref> It is possible that this wounded Spartan was Maria, whose absence allowed her to avoid the [[Fall of Reach]] and afterward having healed enough by October 2552 to test the Mark VI MJOLNIR armor. Other candidates are possible, though, like [[Naomi-010]], who is not known to have been at the Fall of Reach and later served in ONI's [[Kilo-Five]] team. | In ''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]'', during [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Halsey's]] briefing to the Spartans assembled for [[Operation: RED FLAG]], she mentions that among those not present is one SPARTAN-II who was been too critically wounded to continue active duty.<ref>'''Halo: The Fall of Reach''', page ''240''</ref> It is possible that this wounded Spartan was Maria, whose absence allowed her to avoid the [[Fall of Reach]] and afterward having healed enough by October 2552 to test the Mark VI MJOLNIR armor.

In ''[[Halo: Mortal Dictata]]'', [[Serin Osman]] mentions that only one Spartan has ever retired, and only because they had the excuse of having failed the augmentation procedures.<ref>'''Halo: Mortal Dictata''', page ''367''</ref> Since Maria | In ''[[Halo: Mortal Dictata]]'', [[Serin Osman]] mentions that only one Spartan has ever retired, and only because they had the excuse of having failed the augmentation procedures.<ref>'''Halo: Mortal Dictata''', page ''367''</ref> Since Maria is known to have retired, Osman could be referring to her. However, Osman compares the unnamed retired Spartan to herself, as Serin had also failed augmentations. While Osman had not received any physical benefits from the procedure, Maria seems to be at the peak of ability, well enough to use the MJOLNIR powered armor, a system dangerous enough to kill an unaugmented user. Possible answers include Maria having been one of the crippled Spartans who was later rehabilitated, or Osman referring to another Spartan like [[Ralph-303]]. | ||
