Team Lima

Line 5:

After [[Operation: TORPEDO]] on [[Pegasi Delta]] all members of this group, along with most of [[Beta Company]] were pronounced [[MIA]]; due to the [[Office of Naval Intelligence Directive 930|policy]] of never declaring a [[Spartan]] [[KIA]], despite the probability of them being KIA and the fact that no transmission was heard from them ever again. Their true status is still unknown.

Interestingly, the Spartan III program never went public, unlike the Spartan II's. This means there would be no need to have declared the Spartans as MIA to save face since there was no general public morale to boost. It would be sensible to conclude that Team Lima were pronounced MIA simply as another Spartan tradition, rather than protocol. Though the ~~pronunciation~~ of Lima being MIA may have not been totally inaccurate, since the group's actual status was never discovered.
