:That seems pretty legit to me as a canon thing. Also it's hard to make assumptions about what this branch is when the game is still months from release. Perhaps this will be fleshed out more as we get closer to ''Halo 4''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s release.--''[[User:Spartacus|<span style="color:Green; font-weight:bold; font-family:Arial">Spartacus</span>]]'' <sup>('''[[User talk:Spartacus|<font color="Grey">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Spartacus|<font color="Grey">Contribs</font>]]''')</sup> 21:44, 17 June 2012 (EDT) | :That seems pretty legit to me as a canon thing.

::That seems to me to pretty much define what a "blurb" is. I have a feeling someone at 343 mucked up their military terminology, or they are just not being very smart. There is no logical reason to make a project of supersoldiers its own branch. I, honestly, would wait and see more about this before considering it anything close to "canon." --[[User talk:Maslab|Maslab]] 22:03, 17 June 2012 (EDT) | ::That seems to me to pretty much define what a "blurb" is.

:::Well, by being their own branch, it would seem to me that instead of being part of the Navy, but constantly using various Navy, Marine, Army, and Air Force assets, being their own branch means they get their own assets, like vehicles for example. Did it ever make much sense for Spartans to be Navy anyway?

As a side note Sona and Maslab, please do not use your "Halo Fanon logic" here on Halopedia. The fact that you insist on "waiting to see if its canon" shows that you have little respect towards the developer and this wiki's contributors. I know your both of your stances on 343 Industries and while I don't mind you talking about it in an informal discussion, please do not bring it on here. {{User:Grizzlei/Sig}} | As a side note Sona and Maslab, please do not use your "Halo Fanon logic" here on Halopedia.

I want to wait to see if it's canon because it still makes no sense. If what you say is true, why doesn't the US military make, say DEVGRU or Delta Force its own branch? I do have little respect for the developer at this point because I see no real reason to ''give'' them my respect. That said, I don't actually dislike them. I'm simply apathetic. If they are their own branch, they'll still have to coordinate with Army and Naval assets to get from point A to point B and to make sure their operations don't overlap, just like they normally would. And if they still, as likely they will, stay in NavSpecWep, then it makes even less sense to suddenly make them a separate branch because nothing will change. It's making a large change to a military structure that, in the end, won't actually change how they function. --[[User talk:Maslab|Maslab]] 19:50, 20 June 2012 (EDT) | |||
