Kirk-018: Difference between revisions

When the time came for the Spartan augmentations, he became crippled during the surgeries and could not continue his military career as a Spartan II soldier. Despite his now defective body, [[Chief Petty Officer]] [[Franklin Mendez|Mendez]] noted Kirk and the others who can no longer fight still have sharp minds, and they will be reassigned to a non-combat position within the [[Navy]], specifically planning missions, analyzing data and troubleshooting ops.  

[[John-117]] last saw Kirk in a neutral-buoyancy gel tank, breathing through a respirator alongside [[René]], whose skeletal system, due to the carbide ceramic bone ossification was also disfigured beyond recognition like Kirk's. Kirk and the other injured Spartans were taken out of the launch chamber of the [[UNSC]] ''[[UNSC Atlas|Atlas]]'' by a few crewman shortly after their surgical enhancements were completed. Kirk and the others whereabouts and positions are currently unknown though it is likely that he was permanently reassigned to [[ONI]] as Chief Mendez had told John.<ref>''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]'', page 61</ref>  It is quite possible that Kirk has to stay in the Neutral-buoyancy gel tank for the rest of his life.
