*The original printing of ''Halo: The Fall of Reach'' states that Stanforth was a vice admiral in 2517,<ref>'''Fall of Reach''', ''page 19''</ref> but that he was a rear admiral in 2525.<ref>'''Fall of Reach''', ''page 95''</ref> Dr. Halsey's personal journal and the 2011 ''Definitive Edition'' of ''The Fall of Reach'' correct this discrepancy.

Thus his birth date on the memorial is, much like the birth date of Preston Cole, likely an error.
