Some time after John-117 arrived at ''Cairo Station'', the [[Master Gunnery Sergeant]] fitted him with the Mark VI armor that [[Maria-062]] had [[Armor Testing|tested earlier]]. The Sergeant was initially annoyed with how much damage the Chief's old [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark V|Mark V armor]] had taken, but then decided it was all obsolete anyway. The Master Gunnery Sergeant also briefed the Master Chief on the [[Energy shielding|shields]] of the new armor. After testing the armor's energy shielding, Sergeant Major [[Avery Junior Johnson|Avery Johnson]] arrived at the armory to lead John-117 to the ceremony held in the orbital platform's [[bridge]]. When the Master Gunnery Sergeant asked how Johnson survived the Battle of Installation 04, Johnson told him it was "classified". As a result, the Gunnery Sergeant replied that Johnson could forget the adjustments to his [[A2 scope]] he had asked the Gunnery Sergeant to make.<ref name="arm"/> | |||
Later, | Later that day, the Master Gunnery Sergeant was killed when [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] forces [[Battle of Earth|invaded]] the station. Two [[Sangheili]] entered his armory and fired upon him, and he returned fire with a [[M90 Close Assault Weapon System|shotgun]]. John-117, on his way to find the Covenant [[Antimatter charge|bomb]] located elsewhere on the station, entered the armory just in time to see the Sergeant killed by plasma fire. Though unable to save the Master Gunnery Sergeant, John-117 swiftly avenged his death.<ref>'''Halo 2''', campaign level ''[[Cairo Station (level)|Cairo Station]]''</ref> | ||

*There has been some confusion regarding this character's name and rank. In the level The Armory, he is referred to as "Master Guns" by Sergeant Major Johnson. Many interpreted this as him being a [[Master Sergeant]] with the last name "Guns". However, "Master Guns" is an informal address for a Master Gunnery Sergeant, and the character's name is not known. In articles he is often referred to as the unnamed Master Gunnery Sergeant, the Armory's Master Gunnery Sergeant, or "Master Guns" (only if a direct quote from the game). This also might just be a way of Johnson to say "master of the armory." | {{Quotes Link}} | ||

*On rare occasion if the player move fast enough, they can kill the two Sangheili and save the Master Gunnery Sergeant. This accomplishes little, though, as he does not move. | |||
