''After taking out the Brutes, the surviving Marines grab weapons from more piles of corpses, taking a second to grieve for their comrades while the Chief and 'Vadam resupply and reload. They continue their rescue throughout the barracks, defeating the remaining Jiralhanae, including a [[Jiralhanae War Chieftain]] with a detached [[Pek-pattern plasma cannon|plasma turret]], and rescuing (a maximum of) seven Marines.''

*The Prophet of Truth's line, ''"...your destruction is the will of the gods. And I... I am their instrument!"'' is a rephrasing of the message sent to [[Battle Group 4]] during the [[First Battle of Harvest]]. Likewise, the line, ''"Your world will burn until its surface is but glass"'' is a restatement of a message sent to the surface of [[Biko]] in [[2526]].<ref>[[Data pads|Data pad 10]]</ref>

*The "Seventh Column" icon appears in the opening cinematic. Immediately after Commander Keyes says "Give the order, we're closing shop," the screen cuts to a bearded marine who says "Ma'am?" The screen behind him reveals a map of the base, with the Seven Pillars icon appearing in the middle of the lower-right quadrant.

*When the Drones attack, Sgt. Stacker/Reynolds will say "Take 'em down - short, controlled bursts!" This may be a reference to ''Aliens'', as the ''Halo ''series has had many [[list of references to Aliens in Halo|''Aliens'' references]], and possibly because the Drones and the Xenomorphs share more similarities more than any Covenant species.

*The [[Character interludes|Cortana Moments]] in this level are direct quotes from ''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''. All of them are from [[Catherine Halsey|Doctor Halsey]] as she speaks with the [[SPARTAN-II Program|Spartan-IIs]] about the project they are taking part in.

*On the boxes in the part of the room farthest from the monitors is the number 2401, the number of [[Installation 05]]'s [[2401 Penitent Tangent|Monitor]], and a factor of [[Seven|7]]. Similarly, in the first hangar, there is a generator under the floor marked with the [[EMG|EMG 2401]] logo, likely in reference to said Monitor.
