[[Gage Yevgenny]] and another ODST were rescued from approaching Covenant forces by a [[SPARTAN-II Program|strange soldier]] [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark IV|clad in gray-green armor]]. The soldier led the survivors to safety while engaging smaller aliens with impunity and meeting Sangheili and Jiralhanae on equal terms. The ODSTs were led to a stone castle that was being used as the [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines']] command center. The Covenant's low-level energy weapons couldn't vaporize or burn the stone, just melt it slightly, making it stronger. Yevgenny soon learned that the soldier was a SPARTAN, part of a top-secret project that the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] had recently revealed to the public. | [[Gage Yevgenny]] and another ODST were rescued from approaching Covenant forces by a [[SPARTAN-II Program|strange soldier]] [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark IV|clad in gray-green armor]].
