Wounded Marine

The Wounded Marine being tended by another Marine.

The Wounded Marine is an easter egg in Halo 3: ODST. This Marine fought during the Battle of Earth, in the Human-Covenant War. During the fight at Uplift Nature Reserve, New Mombasa, his ankle was broken, which drove him mad. He was being treated by Private First Class Chips Dubbo behind a ledge, but stayed there afterwards.

Dialogue

• Crazed Marine: "No, no, no! You're not listening! It's a zoo, okay?"
• Dubbo: "Well, technically it's a corporate-funded wildlife reserve."
• Crazed Marine: "Semantics! This whole place is one...big...cage!"
• Dubbo: "Listen, Marine. You're wounded; you need to try and relax."
• Crazed Marine: "Except we, we're the zebras. All fenced in...and ready for the slaughter!"
• Dubbo: "And the Covenant?"
• Crazed Marine: "They're the lions...RAAAR!"
• Dubbo: "Careful. I think you just strained a metaphor."
• Crazed Marine: "Oh, oh God, oh God! Is that...serious?"
• Dubbo: "Only if you keep it up."

Trivia

• He is a reference to the various other crazed Marines in the Halo series, and is even voiced by the same voice actor.
